I'm not sure what you're asking here. Where exactly do you thing
buildfarm failures should be reported? There are four mailing lists that
get buildfarm status reports:

* <http://lists.pgfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/pgbuildfarm-status-all>
gets a summary of every single reported build
* <http://lists.pgfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/pgbuildfarm-status-fail> gets
a summary of every build that fails
* <http://lists.pgfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/pgbuildfarm-status-chngs>
gets a summary of every build that results in a status change
* <http://lists.pgfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/pgbuildfarm-status-green>
gets a summary of every build that results in a status change to or
from green (a.k.a. OK)

These are available in digest form.

What we could possibly add is a feature to email a committer about a
commit included in the changeset of a failing build. The main trick
would be to avoid flooding the committers, so that a commit would only
be notified once. Magnus has suggested something like this previously,
but I haven't looked at it much - I can again. It might not be too hard.

cheers
