distributions, as well as the Debian based distros I've tested. I

Google for "debian new"; third hit:

You cannot access the packages themselves, but it does show which bugs are
fixed.

I'd like to file a wishlist bug on people who file FTBFS bugs.
It would be nice if you checked first whether there's a package
pending in NEW or incoming and see if that might resolve the issue
