You can get at that information if you follow the links it spits out
on IRC actually. As for the build failures, the mips/ppc ones are
actually due to code issues. The x86gcc2 one was due to a copy & paste
error that results in it trying to build an invalid target, and
consequently fails. All the information BOM had is there, and then
some.

It does, but that's disabled intentionally until all the kinks are
worked out, to avoid spamming everyone on the commits list during
tests.
