Maybe we need to put that build box I've heard we have access to up to 
autobuilding a few more DISTRO/MACHINE/<images/whatever> combinations? 
People are trying to go with "nothing is pinning to version ..." but 
yes, not every MACHINE/DISTRO combination is being tested and I'm quite 
sure that therein lies a problem (and some recipes might well need 
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE put in them).

In addition to the posting to the ML part of things, this is just 
another example of why it's good to commit single and self contained 
changes.  Yes, it sucks to have to dig out why / when something got 
broken but it sucks a lot less when the answer is a single and whole commit.
