I believe most of the issues should get resolved on its own after the
mass rebuild of all the packages.

Rel-Eng will do the mass rebuild as soon as they get the green light from Jakub.
Well, all I can say, building rawhide packages (esp. C++) seems to have evolved into a lottery and rendered working one Fedora packages into an adventure.

E.g. I am facing packages which one day build, but fail to build the other day. Today, I have been facing a package which builds in local rawhide mocks, but fails in official koji.

To be honest, this is very non-satisfactory!

I tried suggesting 2 mass rebuilds; 1 mass rebuild of all packages
right now, and another mass rebuild of all the packages 1 month later
when gcc5 becomes more stable, but they said no as it costs too much
resources.
Not sure - IMO, we need to minimize the causes of breakdowns, because at the moment too many issues seem to be interacting at the same time ( GCC-5.0, "harding", "usual package upgrade churn).

A non "hardened" mass rebuild, would have been an intermediate step which would have been helpful, but ... it's too late, IMO.
