I'm in favor of having Atlassian setup a system to be used for 3k.  It
would be completely experimental and could be completely thrown away
which should be made clear to Atlassian if we were to do this.  I
would use the system for evaluation.  If we did this, we should also
try to ensure we can get all the data out, just in case we want to
preserve any of it.

Most of my time will probably be spent cleaning up 2.5 for the next
couple of weeks at least.  So I'm not going to have time to rip out
more stuff from 3k.  coerce is almost gone.

Low hanging fruit for someone interested in helping out:
  * find warnings with icc that are important to fix
  * remove unnecessary casts for PyMethodDefs

The first item requires icc obviously.  I haven't had time to set up
my version yet.
The second item could be done by anyone.  There may be some issues
resulting from the ssize_t merge that are being masked due to casting.
 If we remove the unnecessary casts (e.g., PyCFunction, unaryfunc,
binaryfunc, ternaryfunc), we may find some things to cleanup.

We still need builbots for:  FreeBSD, AIX, HP-UX, and NetBSD.
