Absolutely! All of us will make mistakes occasionally and commit code that will 
break the tests (either because they have not been run or because the 
environment is different). In this case a good developer would look into IRC to 
alert the committer in question.

If the bug can be fixed in a timely manner then it doesn't make sense to roll 
anything back. Timely manner however should (in my opinion) be defined as an 
hour or two, certainly not a day. The idea of these tests are, that

* developers can be sure to update to something that will at least build and 
contain the functionality that was there yesterday, in a working state.

* QA doesn't have to test just *everything*, and we can ensure a certain degree 
of functionality simply by running the integration tests.
