Well, that's one way of doing it. :)

Personally, I do build from master 99.5% of the time, as it's
*supposed* to work all the time.  The automated testing that's
done for all of the patches is (in theory) meant to stop general
breakage for things like this.  Of course though, things don't
always play ball, 

When it doesn't, I generally file a BZ (if one's not already
there), and try to figure out the cause/fix.

Including info on how to build from the branches is a decent idea.

I've been kind of avoiding it so far, because that starts down a fairly
complicated road.  Different branches have slightly different needs for
compiling (different dependencies, different ./configure options), and
I've been wanting to keep that rpm compiling page as simple as possible.

Maybe that needs to be revisited though... :)

Steal away.  The info on that page is Community knowledge, and the
wider it gets spread/stolen/etc the better. :)
