Well, then, keep a list of the bugs you've filed. Each day you autobuild
say, 30 packages from Incoming. If they fail to build, you file bugs and add
them to the bottom of your list. Then you look at the top 1/7th [1] of the
list. For each bug, if the maintainer has fixed the bug, you build binaries
(if you haven't already). If the maintainer hasn't, you do a NMU.
If the list starts getting too small, great, you can start looking at more
packages each day from incoming. If it gets too long, you can cut back on
how many new packages you build each day.

see shy jo
[1] So you go through the full list in a week, giving the maintainer a week
to react.
