If anyone goes through all the steps to get to the point where they could try 
building Firefox on one of these builders through to completion, and perhaps 
downloading it to their local machine for testing, I would very much appreciate 
a walkthrough of all the steps involved.

I realize I could sort it out, but doing these kinds of things always takes a 
lot of time to get organized, so if anyone cares to share the step-by-step 
process, it would be great.
