Well, basically, I test them on both stable and current at the moment,
so that should help. Perhaps we could have some sort of flag that the
portkeepers could add, that says whether or not it will work under
current, so that ppl know what to expect. sort of "BROKEN_FOR_CURRENT".
I as a porter don't like BROKEN in any of my Makefiles, so that would be
reason enough for me to fix it asap :-)
