I think you could run your own buildfarm member and add whatever "steps"
you wanted (we have one building JDBC). I'm not sure that we want that
though -- it'd start polluting the greenness of our buildfarm with
failures from code outside of our control.
I mean, if the third party code fails to compile, surely it's the third
party devs that care.
I fail to see why this is such a big deal.
