Never mind ;-)

I've just pushed a Dockerfile and the corresponding image to GitLab.
See

  https://gitlab.com/sane-project/ci-envs

for details.

A builder has been added to the sane-backends/.gitlab-ci.yml file in
1859803 and the build results should be up shortly after the next
mirror sync of the GitLab repository with Alioth.  See

  https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/pipelines

and links therein for the latest build pipeline results.

For pretty pictures of the (dumbed-down) build results, see

  https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/graphs/master/ci

The picture for the Fedora 24 builds, either with Clang (3.8) or GCC
(6.1), are *not* pretty, though.  Scores upon scores of new warnings.
It doesn't really seem to matter much with compiler is used.

Running make under scan-build is pretty slow (on my machine at least)
and doesn't seem to be particularly productive right now.  At first
sight, a good deal of the results appear to be due to the compiler
warnings.

Hope this helps,
