build, run or test. Triggered by the binutils/kernel issue at

+------------
+$ cat ~/test.sh
+#!/bin/sh
+
+# tweak the working tree by merging the hot-fix branch
+# and then attempt a build
+if	git merge --no-commit hot-fix &&
+	make
+then
+	# run project specific test and report its status
+	~/check_test_case.sh

+This applies modifications from a hot-fix branch before each test run,
+e.g. in case your build or test environment changed so that older
+revisions may need a fix which newer ones have already. (Make sure the
+hot-fix branch is based off a commit which is contained in all revisions
+which you are bisecting, so that the merge does not pull in too much, or
+use `git cherry-pick` instead of `git merge`.)
