This is just a guess, but I can imagine sipa's address index branch
might be more suitable for an use case where information about any
address is required - jmcorgan continued to maintain a usually somewhat
up-to-date version:
https://github.com/jmcorgan/bitcoin/tree/addrindex
As for balance queries, that's not possible out of the box and I have my
own branch for this with a few other RPC calls that are noted in the README:
https://github.com/dexX7/bitcoin/tree/master-addrindex-extended
When using the original, you need to ensure a transaction is part of the
main chain and wasn't orphaned. If you consider using my branch, please
consider it twice and review the changes first.

</span>It has been merged. There is the "importaddress" RPC
call, which works<br>
the same as "importprivkey" except that you a pass it an
address.<br>
<span class=3D""><br>

<br>
</span>Yes - aim is in a few months, probably by the end of
the year.<br>
<br>
AFAIK there are no nightly builds at this moment. Warren
Togami was<br>
building them for a while (at <a moz-do-not-send=3D"true"
href=3D"http://nightly.bitcoin.it/" target=3D"_blank">http:=
//nightly.bitcoin.it/</a>)
but he<br>
stopped some time around June.<br>
<br>
It's not recommended to use master without at least a little
bit of<br>
development/debugging experience of yourself (to trace down
problems<br>
when they appear), so it's best to build it yourself if
you're going<br>
to test day-to-day development versions.<br>
