Roughly what proportion of Debian packages are failing to build in
this environment?
Roughly how many of the failures are failure to compile (like #924325),
and how many are failing build-time tests and would likely have built
successfully if you had been using DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck
(like #907829)?
I'm trying to get a picture of how much of a practical problem this is,
and what the more common bug is: race conditions etc. in the actual build,
or faulty assumptions (race conditions or otherwise) in build-time tests.
