why? 

They do fail to build…

So instead I could rather imagine to use a note/issue here: 
first_build_succeeded_but_2nd_not or such and then automatically
detect and set them…

besides that I'm really not sure about the benefits, we have lots of other
work on our todo, eg rebuilding against ftp.debian.org instead of our 
own builds (and also integrating other distros in the setup) and this
change would also require internal changes (think db) too…
