Comment (by duncan):

 One option here is to put newly uploaded packages into a separate category
 and not move them over into the main repo until there are some number of
 successful build reports. This would depend on hackage/cabal-install build
 reporting (ticket #184).

 That'd reduce the load on a central hackage server.
