Seems to be mostly German... No compile farm that I could find, but has
ssh and apache (oh, and MySQL ;-). Details at
http://developer.berlios.de/docs/site/services.php

FWIW, the SF compile farm isn't really my bag either. But it does
support Solaris 8 SPARC-64, x86, PPC, SPARC, and Alpha Linux (all
elderly Debian 2.2?), x86 FreeBSD, and now Mac OSX.

Development should of course continue to be x-platform. But Lintel only
support+testing from OSDL is still beneficial.

That works too. I was thinking of keeping a complete cvs tree, and
diffing the official one to the external one to find modified files. I
just liked the idea of having something "complete", rather than just a
filestore of patches...
