I would love it.
As far as I know, Travis does not have any big-endian systems.
(Nor is it particularly easy to install the right 32-bit x86 libraries on the
same travis instance, because a few of the devel libraries like libusb, have
conflicts between the 64-bit and 32-bit packages on ubuntu/debian)

Do you?

The wireshark folks have buildbot infrastructure, and we were suppposed to
set up a buildbot server, but it never got done.
If you wanted to take that on, it would be very much appreciated.

If you are at IETF89 London, I could set up accounts for you on bpf, but
really the buildbot server could run anywhere.
