It needs to be discussed with other devs as well, what they think...

We do still have free minutes at GitLab. But the amount of combinations 
for testing is (near) infinite.

There is "make" (aka "make all" ?) and "make bigide".
Afaik "make useride" depends on what packages are configured, so that is 
not just a single setting?

But each of them may fail only for a specific OS/Arch, or for some other 
specific setting. (like compile time range check error for constant 
eval, with -Cr enabled).
We already have builds for win, gtk2, qt, iirc some with 32bit, and fpc 
3.2.2 and trunk. (not all variations though).

I personally currently don't have the time to look into it.
(I'll ping the others, if anyone wants to pick up)

If I should find time eventually, my interest will be much more in 
adding some of the tests we have to be run.
