I don't want to discourage you from such experimentation, but I think
this is something to be avoided in general: you have a frankenstein
installation that cannot be easily up- or down-graded to fix problems
and any problems you encounter will have to be passed through a filter
to figure out whether they arise from your specific installation method
or whether they apply to org in general. IOW, it is less useful both to
you (except for getting o-b-a-f, I guess) and to the developers than
either straight maint or straight master.
