Guile automated builds available

Hello,

I've installed a daily build process on some of the GCC Compile Farm
Project's machines [0], currently covering 3 architectures (sparc64,
alphaev56 and x86-64), all under GNU/Linux, with different versions of
GCC.  From now on, the build should run at around 3pm UTC every day.
Build logs are sent by mail to Simon Josefsson's Autobuild service [1]
and can be seen here:

  http://autobuild.josefsson.org/guile/

I'm planning to add automated builds on some of HP's Test Drive machines
eventually, but that will require more work as they are behind a very
restrictive firewall (no HTTP, no SSH, etc.).

I use a simple script (attached) that invokes Autobuild's m4 macro [2].
I'm wondering whether it would be a good idea to include it in releases,
and tell people they can run
"./configure && make check | mail guile@autobuild.josefsson.org" so that
we get more build results.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludovic.

This looks really useful!

I think that's an excellent idea.  Just to check that I'm
understanding correctly: I believe you mean just adding AB_INIT to
configure.in, and the source for AB_INIT to acinclude.m4; is that
right?

Yes.  Will do it shortly.

Thanks,
