I think the issue is one of quality assurance. We don't have a strict
set of criteria for testing/validating/certifying that a given snapshot
of a given toolchain, in a given configuration, will work.

I'm trying to address some of these things by building a cross-check
test-suite to test the toolchain weekly or nightly. This all came out
of a talk I had with Matt Taggart :) who is another toolchain-junkie.

When I get more work done I'll post.
