..the best reason to automate backport building, is it offers 
another set of test case scenarios that we can use to debug libs, 
build tools, graphics drivers etc with real work loads like 
flightgear-2.4 and the upcoming flightgear-2.6 in Squeeze and 
Wheezy.  Or, you can make your own Debian Live distro with your 
own http://airventure.org/ air show version at KOSH with your
own mod .debs from FlightGear.org's Git repository.  _Etc_.  
Instead of using _old_ _irrelevant_ flightgear-2.0 at KSFO.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
