A few years ago, we were asked to cut our downloads down to 5 GB.
I deleted a bunch of devel stuff and got it down to 7 or 8, but
we're probably back to 15 GB now.  I don't think we should fill up
the server with that many builds, nor do I think we should ask
James to do all that building.

I don't like the idea of treating users as guinea pigs.  If
somebody wants to test out devel stuff, it's not unreasonable for
them to compile it themselves (inside lilydev if necessary).
