Intel has had such a build farm for years. It does usually catch these
issues... after the fact.

Even then it'll take some time for someone to see the issue and
attempt to fix it.

But, it is a lot more likely that someone that uses GCC will notice
the build break and submit a patch way before that process completes.

Similarly, if we break the MSVC build (this is a two way street), then
it'll probably be found and patched fairly quickly.

It could be that the move to git will make it more feasible to have a
testing branch that could allow all patches to first be tested against
all toolchains. But, personally I'm not really sure that a separate
branch would be worth the hassle.
