One of the hoped-for benefits of developing my port was that the buildbots would rebuild it each time a dependency changed and that I'd be notified of any failed builds.  Alas, I found at the end that a license conflict means that binaries can't be distributed and that the buildbots only build for distribution.

They build regardless; in fact they make use of their own archives. These archives are only published if the license allows it.
