I think the key thing is to try as much as possible to cover
the build environments that are at the extremes of the
envelope that we support:
 * OSX
 * Windows
 * big endian hosts
 * 32 bit hosts
 * non-x86 boxes
 * ancient versions of glib, etc
 * really old gcc
 * really new gcc
 * clang
 * static binaries

We can generally assume that submitters and submaintainers will
have done a test on x86-64 Linux on some reasonably recent distro,
so that's actually the least interesting thing to do in an
automated test.

Of course the catch is that the weirdo build environments are
the ones that are hardest to set up and have in an automated
test system :-)
