Getting the entirety of AmigaOS 3.1 to build from source is far from easy going by Olsen's accounts, especially if you intend to make a 512 kB Kickstart out of it.
However, an opened source means that
1) bugs and missing features in separate components, such as a single library or C: command, can be fixed
2) said functionality can be reproduced in a new implementation with less risk of failing on edge cases or wasting time trying to reverse-engineer intended behaviour
3) sooner or later, someone with too much time may be able to make it build when said person has too much time and not when all rights have been cleared and said person no longer has the time.
