I know that Opera at least, had been using icecream (https://github.com/icecc/icecream) internally to do distributed builds, and occasionally the main repo would make a modification to the build system that would break it. One time this actually resulted in the discovery of a bug in the llvm project (https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=778209). Hopefully external teams that are building chromium will have this pain point alleviated. :)
