You can still diff between last good and first known bad. If necessary you can branch and squash the non builders to see what happened. At worst the intermediate commits gives you the same problem you would have if you had squashed to start with.

Well, if you're going to be bisecting a lot or compilation takes a while, it saves you time to do the squash now (when you know which commits are supposed to compile and which aren't) rather than when you come back to it.
