How useful would it be for the compilation process to produce a binary as well as a symbols file for everyone?
I will reformulate the question, how many bugs were hard to reproduce on others computer? And were more dependent on the compiler output than the configuration flags?
My usecase would be to be able to archive just the binary and symbols in a cache folder so I don't need to compile it again when testing testcases.
May be you can just keep one full image for every mozilla-central merge, and only keep binary-diff compared to the parent commit. I do not expect that the ~30 changes happening to the JS engine will shift things a lot.
Recovering the build of a changeset, is a matter of applying the right set of patches.
