AIUI Anthony's personal build script kicks off a CBS build, runs the
result in osstest (the upstream XenProject's CI system), then pushes
them to testing.

XenProject's CI system is more focused on interoperability with all
the other projects we interact with than on depth of coverage; but
that's just about right for the CentOS packages -- only the packaging
itself should really need to be tested.  Everything else should
already have been tested by upstream partners before the release.

IIRC from the last discussion we had, probably one of the more
annoyingly sticky issues is dealing with different configurations; in
particular different dom0 kernel configurations.  Any major changes
risks having one of our downstreams suddenly stop working.
