Thanks for noticing.  The arrangement we had, which essentially said
"we know we will always build tagged version, so a push of a branch
that happens to have a tagged version at the tip can be ignored",
served us wonderfully.  Now the maintainers of projects (not just
this one) are forbidden from tagging the tip of master, queue
something else on top and push the result out, as it won't build or
test the tagged version, which is a bit sad.

Quite straight-forward.  Thanks, will queue.
