The correct response to a dev breaking cvs is "hey, this broke, can you
fix it?", not "I'm a dick".

Not everyone is in #e (its hard to take that mindless drivel for more
than a few minutes a month). So, "see #e" is a worthless response.
Now, several people having build issues does indicate that the build is
broken. But, people temporarily break cvs all the time (including me,
raster, and possibly even your holiness). Either fix it or wait for the
dev who broke it to fix it. (Or revert your local tree to before the
patch that broke things).

Finally some useful information... Amazing. (Typically it takes a few
more heated emails back and forth before anything like this appears). 

So, in summary. 

I) Stop treating people like shit.
II) Let them know when they break things BEFORE you revert their changes. 
III) Stop treating people like shit.
