I'm interested in finding regressions too, because I'm seriously considering 
putting out a .30 of my own just so there's a known set of bugs to test 
against.  (Considering that nothing's been checked into the repository for 
two weeks, this seems like a nice point to do it...)

I was working on this last week, but upgrading my laptop to Kubuntu 8.04 
knocked me offline for a week.  Back now. :)

Right now, I'm upgrading my Firmware Linux targets from 0.9.29 to svn.  I'll 
let you know what breaks, and hopefully patch it up for a quick .30.  I 
should be able to test x86, x86-64, mips (both endiannesses), arm little 
endian, and powerpc.  (And maybe sparc if it suddenly decides to work, but it 
didn't under 0.9.29.)
