One simple thing that can be done is to set up a cron job to
fetch updates and if anything changed, to rebuild and mail if
there are any essential differences from previous run.

Requires no additional cooperation from anyone else and can
work for catching breakage early in any third party software.

Another thing that can be done is to maintain a separate
"ports" repository, where you keep patches required to build
but that are not yet integrated in any upstream repo + any
other bits to a s/w package in a platform specific manner.
This is how FreeBSD ports work. Everyone shouldn't have to
track down patches and try merging them individually.
