As both of us just found our reports generated by RM and those generated
locally by a reviewer may not always match. What really matters is
whether or not the source tarball compiles and passes the checks for
_you_. Reports published by RM are useless and a waste of RM time. 

If something is still unclear we should work on improving BUILDING.txt
instructions.
