might be worth signing up to buildbot-devel (it's very low traffic) and mention that...
I'm going away on holiday soon for a couple of weeks. I'll look at that after I come back. There may be some issues to work out if I'm going to test with their latest cvs version and that's not what our server is running, and I won't have time for it before I leave.
I did find where to stick the --keepalive option. Buildbot doesn't take it, so I hardcoded it at the end of the mktap command line that is put together in runner.py.
Cygwin and Win32 are running with it now. I'll restart the Fedora Core 3 one as soon as I finish a system update I'm doing on that machine right now.
