So I gather the reason you stopped was that the facility disappeared,
and that you view the nightly builds as a good thing.
For now I'm your nightly build farm.  (Or at least one of 'em.)

I am doing so now.  That's considerably less time than the build.
It also is clearly useful for finding certain problems, 
On the other hand, I'm not rebuilding libsigsegv, libffcall, etc.
I currently get two daily emails, one from each machine.
I have to look at the output to decide whether things are working.
Currently I look at the tail of the output of each major command.
If it doesn't look like what I expect then I get to investigate
further and report the problem.
