It all depends upon what you want / need, doesn't it?  I just want
the compiler to be working again for my code. It used to, but the
most recent code base doesn't.  I have enough history that I was
even able to identify the diff where it broke --- a rather large one.

But I don't have the cycles or interest in trying to fix it myself.
