If these are directly greppable from the build logs, then the proper place is probably in the code on debian.org infrastructure that handles incoming logs from the buildds. That said, sbuild runs a separate logger process to handle build logs, and we could add additional logic in there to match user-configurable patterns and mail them to a user-configurable address. Note this would require disabling by default, or default to the user running sbuild, or else any random user building a package would end up spamming the BTS. This could then be enabled on the buildds. If we allow a list of regexes to be used, we can support different compiler versions, languages, etc.. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
