Pushing a "nightly" package to Travis would solve this issue almost
entirely.

There's an already working test suite by the HHVM folks at
https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/blob/1ecb4443d95c2e2659028f148083dd5c85f20=
99b/hphp/test/frameworks/frameworks.yaml

In the eventuality in which PHP-SRC retains control over the CI environment
that runs the framework tests, this suite could be reused. The problem is
that it actually takes days to run all those tests, and I don't know if the
hardware is available.
