The repacks I referred to above are the 'l10n repacks' which generate localized builds.  Without those, all we have are en_US builds.

The win32 and Mac builds on ftp.m.o are usable for now.  Linux32/64 build logs need more investigation for me to say to go ahead and test them, but you may if you wish.  Android compiles are failing - something I need to detangle with RelEng tomorrow morning (we now depend on a newer android SDK which is not present on our linux-ix machines).
The win32 l10n repacks also ended up failing like on the other platforms.

Already posted this on r-d email but for completeness I'm cross-posting here. QA is moving ahead with testing the en-US Desktop builds tonight. We'd rather accept the risk of a respin than to lose a full night of testing.

FWIW, our Mozmill automation encountered no failures on any platform with the en-US builds:
