I'm just raising it because I'd like to build everything to create Ubuntu packages.  I can always go off of a tag if folks think that would be a better approach.

Feel free to continue reporting problems on this list. We have automated builders internally, but problems uncovered there aren't always addressed promptly. You will need to specify the OS version that you are trying to build for, though.

For building packages you may want to stick with the "snapshot" tags. Those tags are used to build the packages at swift.org/download/. They are known to build cleanly and run the automated tests on the supported OS versions so they ought to be more likely to work.
