I see. Do you at least run check-all? I wouldn't trust any build that
doesn't at least passes the basic checks.

One thing you can do to minimise the risk is to only checkout
revisions that are known to be good by investigating the buildbots.
That won't guarantee anything, since you're cross-compiling and we're
not, but that should give you "some" peace of mind.

What revision is this? Release 3.5 or trunk or something else?

These are sane options. :)
