The best way to ensure that it compiles for you is that you compile it and 
fix the problems you encounter. 

I have - as many other developers a cronjob running that updates the 
necessary directories (extracted from kde-cvs mailinglist) and recompiles 
CVS every 6 hours. most of the time all modules compile well (except 
kdebindings). ok, I'm not sitting 24h in front of my computer, especially 
not on christmas, so things might go through unnoticed for a few hours or 
days.

just update again before you bother. rerunning configure is also a good 
thing to do before bothering. Other than that, the only way is to notify 
those who committed broken stuff or to simply fix it. Most of the time its 
fairly obvious what is going wrong :)
