Oops, I should have thought about that :D  Thanks for the hints!  I
mainly picked this approach because I did not want to wait for weeks
watching build errors each day just because builder-client thinks it
is not a GNU-like box.  My original solution does not hurt anything as
I am running each slave in its own jail with an environment
specialized for building GHC only.  It is handy because I have one
amd64 system only, but I can also host another "virtual" i386 instance
that way, and I can share configuration settings between them easily.

However, I am trying to revert these hacks slowly as my time permits.
As I mentioned before, my goal first is just to discover the potential
problems, while spitting out nightly builds as soon as possible.

A possibly offtopic question: what is up with OpenBSD?

Cheers,
:g
