The main problem is that the 2 new buildd are Niagara machines
which are not really stable. It left only 2 buildd which seems to
be quit old and slow.
On my V240, the 3.13 kernel seems to be rock solid (I've been
rebuilding the gcc package 3 times - 8hours build - without any
issue).
Maybe what's missing is a couple of stable buildd to match the
workload.
Interesting. I have a SB 2500 (2xUltraSPARC III) and I faced some
instability when using 'git clone' on a kernel I compiled, but stock
debian was OK. I wrote it off since I changed the default memory
allocator and enabled a few experimental features, but maybe there is
something more to this. Perhaps we should compare some kernel
configurations and see where the source of instability might be.

My kernel are plain debian kernel, without modification. I had no issue
at all with new kernel.
I've been running 3.2 for 1-2 year with no issue.
