I have mythtv running on 3 platforms, thus 3 systems to compile.
Compiling it is not the hard part, once I make a switch to a new server
version or switch one of the backends everything else must be in place.
Example my Xbox is much slower compiling than my p4 2.0. If I could
build the new server and continue to be able to use it with the old
front end on the xbox it would mean much less downtime for that
frontend. Currently once I upgrade the server and the P4 frontend I
can't watch TV on the xbox in my room until its finished compiling.
