I entirely agree, a dirty trunk is huge disincentive to activity. I'd like
to see a clean trunk policy, but quite how that could be encouraged
and/or enforced is difficult to imagine.

Without change tho', this is only going to get worse as Boost has more
contributors and a wider audience.

I guess we either have to look at some kind of gatekeeper arrangement,
or think DVCS's.
