If one is to update NetBSD via CVS, how may one know
the last successful autobuild for a given platform?

Heretofore I've not been brave enough to try and
build NetBSD-current. And yesterday my first attempt
stopped with an error. I seem to spend equal time
sharpening my tools as using them.

I think it might be good enough for someone like me
to just stay on the TRAILING edge of current versus
the BLEEDING one. Is there an easy way to find out
which build date will surely install sans any headache
on such-and-such platform?

The article at...

...is what I'd like to follow, but for the last
known-good build and not be guinea pig for
last-night's untried current. This is being cowardly
I know, but I can't spare the time for heroics.

Thanks,

Gan
