Thanks Yavor!
If it ends up that you cannot do it, let me know and I can do it.
But the cost of starting a rebuild and analyzing the failures is quite
high in my case, so I'd rather not do it for small-scale rebuilds.
I should work on improving my tooling so that such rebuilds are less
time-consuming. I'll think about it.
