Sigh, and once again it turns out there was no need to write it,
because Branko beat me to it in a separate thread... Sorry 'bout that.
I did read all of the orginal thread first, at least. :-)

Branko, are you doing automated "make; make check" on these platforms?
Do you want to be?

I've been thinking it's time to set up an automated build/test system,
that would mail nightly results to a new list

   svn-breakage@subversion.tigris.org

or something. The most important of the automated platforms would be
Windows, because it's what we break most often. How hard would it be
to set up automated build and mailoff on Windows?
