I compiled Emacs successfully on the two systems described below. Yet I
was wondering: what information is generally useful here to characterize
"one's build platform"? I copied some information from buffers created
via `report-emacs-bug' - obviously a clumsy procedure. Could it
facilitate this process if there was a command `report-emacs-build' that
gathers the relevant information in a mail buffer, similar to
`report-emacs-bug'?
Possibly, a command `report-emacs-build-success' was really sufficient,
because build failures most often might deserve a bug report.
