Alas, it's not entirely trivial.  The tag just indicates the cutoff for
the build.  It doesn't reflect backouts or stopper fixes that happened
after the cutoff.

To recreate a biweekly build, start with the tag, then review the
on-discuss archives for respin announcements[1], which list the additional
changesets.
