most != all.  Are you volunteering to field the PRs for the others?

My personal opinion is that our priorities should be to get the
current number of PRs down as low as possible, to fix as many of
the ports that do not build on the various architectures as we can,
and to fix all the fetching problems as noted in Fenner's portsurvey.
With respect to the first two, we are either holding our own or
making slight progress; with respect to the latter, we are falling
behind.

If someone wants to set up a box to do regression testing on -O2,
by all means, they should go for it, but by no means do I feel that
it should be the default.

My opinion on this is subject to change if e.g. we get an influx of
new volunteers.  We can always use them.
