Broken master and newcomers.

Just had an interesting IRC chat on the infra channel.
It seems it would be easy to have our ci system maintain a tag pr. platform.
The idea would be:
when master compiles on platform Foo, set/move tag "buildable_on_<foo>".
Doing that would have a very minimal effect on the build job, but give (at least) new contributors a better security, that any build problems are local.
I highly recommend that such a tagging be implemented, and volunteer to update our "getInvolved" page to reflect this.
I am aware it does not guarantee that ci can build on all platforms, but it gives us a push in the right direction.
thoughts?
