I don't understand the error (are we out of registers in the register allocator? what can we do about that?). Simon could you please explain.
As for the continuos builds, can't we have them email the list upon breakages?
We could but I think there is no mechanism to tell what's meaningful breakage and how to present it. I think this should be part of the discussion in the “Offering GHC builder build slaves” thread and someone just needs to sit down and hook it up. This includes fancier things such as blaming commit ranges for specific test changes &c. Short-term solution would be to subscribe to ghc-builds@haskell.org and filter out the contents so only failing builds are shown, taking care to exclude the slaves which are failing constantly due to unrelated reasons. -- Mateusz K.
