 That's why we have utils/test-pkg. For things with a kernel dependency it's a
bit more complicated to set up (you need a different kernel config for different
toolchains, and BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_ARCH_DEFAULT_CONFIG is not available for
all arches and takes a loooooong time for x86_64). But with e.g. just one for
ARM you already get pretty far.
