It's easy for me to test patches, but it involves building a new chroot tarball so it's slightly non-automatic. I'm happy to do it though. Anyway, I'm not so much complaining about the ports being broken as the committers who cause the breakage throwing up their hands and saying "Not my problem that I broke 100 ports!". I think it's only responsible for people who commit major changes to deal with the entire fallout of the change, not just getting the src tree building again. I'm not even complaining very much about this, because for the most part committers *are* willing to help deal with the ports fallout of their changes. It's just something I wanted to remind people to think about.
