I might throw some time and equipment at it if I knew I wasn't
re-inventing square wheels (or even round ones for that matter). And I
suspect that others smarter than I am would do the same and maybe even
improve the approach by coming up with ways to predict the build
environment needed to reproduce a given binary to reduce the
trial-and-error time.

Oh really? If each tech would do his own rebuild and then publish it
we would end up with a few thousand more distributions. I doubt we
all can then follow all that work.<br>
I think we are having this discussion since we want to improve
CentOS, not have our own distro. I think if somebody wants his own,
he already has it or he is working on it behind closed doors
(ahem...).<br>
