Any ways to test a GHC build against large set of packages (including test suites)?

I also briefly looked at hackage.head. As far as I understand it doesn't
out-of-the-box provide a way to build a large set of packages, right? It'd be
useful if I had a package that I want to test against GHC HEAD but currently it
doesn't help me, unless I'm missing something.
