the machines that host the uclibc/busybox/etc... infrastructure (i.e. 
website/scm/etc...) are not suitable for anything other than that.  while 
running a buildbot daemon might be ok (we'd have to ask), building/compiling 
anything on them would not.  this would let us farm out the regression testing 
to random interested parties on the list ...
