What was the reason for this change?

Some time ago, we had (IIRC) reached consensus around the fact that the
build farm should pick anything that’s maintained.  I recently made a
change such that a package that’s maintained and doesn’t have
‘meta.platforms’ is built on all supported platforms.

Thanks,
