I would think it would make sense to ensure the newly committed code
also builds correctly (including info), and why not test back to Emacs
22 also (since that is how this thread came about)? I have set up
something similar, and doing all this takes less than 1 minute on my
machine.

Incidentally, I added info on running tests on Emacs 22 and 23 to Worg at 

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tests/index.html

Best, Martyn
