I find it comforting to know that things are ticking over and I know how easy it is to break code for different platforms. (I'm not a valgrind developer but live in hope that I might one day be able to use it so lurk on this list) I'm am happy with just the distribution name and version as Tom included in his header. I did find it hard to tell if some of Toms builds had passed or failed though, it looks like they passed as they don't have any of the Make: footer but in this case they probably shouldn't include the tail of the log file. Ideally procmail could filter the failed and successful ones too without having to grub inside the message contents but if there was a header to say build-log this would just be putting something in the subject which would be a good idea anyway.
