Hi Mark,

The targets=all configuration will catch most architecture-specific
linker problems, but unfortunately it does not work so well with
assembler issues.  The only real way is to have a whole slew of
different configurations set up and ready to rebuild and retest
once a patch is applied.  Which takes up a lot of disk space and a
lot of time...  

I have such a set up since I see as part of my job as a maintainer 
for the binutils, but I would not expect individual contributors to
go to such lengths.  That is one of the reasons why I try to test
generic-code-affecting patches in my local farm before approving them.

Cheers
  Nick
