Nice resource, should maybe put a page on the wiki to link the different 
automated build testers; I'm losing track of all of them.

Now, this type of service will probably catch more generic NetBSD 
failures, which from buildrump.sh's perspective are transient, than 
failures for buildrump.sh.  I think that in the past 1.5 years there 
have been around 5 failures that only affected buildrump.sh.  Maybe if 
some build fails 100 times in a row, it should attract attention, as 
it's more likely a buildrump.sh-only failure.

However, this service will be very useful when I'm considering updating 
the NetBSD source timestamp and want to see if everything is fine with 
the current HEAD and if not, whenabouts it broke.

Just to avoid catching any in-flight commits, maybe change the script to 
checkout an explicit timestamp instead of HEAD, e.g.:
./checkout.sh cvs nbsrc -D "$(TZ=UTC date +'%Y%m%d %H%M' -d '30 min 
ago')UTC"
(as a side-effect that also documents how to checkout the tree from when 
failures started)

thanks!
