Is http://wiki.python.org/moin/BuildBot the relevant documentation?
It still seems to refer to subversion, I presume that is no longer
needed and just mercurial will do?  I've set up a blank solaris 10
zone on a sparc T1000 with the OpenCSW toolchain (gcc 4.6.3) on our
server and installed buildslave.  According to the instructions this
is the point where I ask for a slave name and password.


Also, would it make sense to support OpenCSW more out of the box?
Currently we carry some patches for setup.py in order to pick up e.g.
sqlite from /opt/csw etc.  Would there be an interest in supporting
this?
