What happens when a port fails to compile (+universal) and there is no maintainer?

[potterpg]

What happens when a port fails to compile (+universal) and there is no maintainer?

ie jemalloc?

The auto build build either an arm64 or an x86_64, so seems like no one would ever know if a +universal build fails.

How or who resolves this kind of issue?
