 * Unsupported buildbots that are succeeding!

What?  When did Dan's ArchLinux buildbot start succeeding?  Let's see, it was 
still failing with the old mysterious deep recursion in zope.interface at build 
#276:

http://allmydata.org/buildbot/builders/Dan%20ArchLinux/builds/276

but it has been consistently succeeding ever since, starting with build #277:

http://allmydata.org/buildbot/builders/Dan%20ArchLinux/builds/277

The changes that Brian committed which triggered build #277 don't seem to have 
anything to do with this issue.

Okay, Dan, fess up.  What did you do?

Um ... I played with a few things ... looked at the source ... tried to grok what zope.interface was doing ...

Seriously, the only "change" is that I did a "setup.py install" in the buildbot workdir. Wait, no; I built an egg, dropped it in /tmp, and ran easy_install on that as a different user (one with sufficient permission; of course buildbot can't install software in the root).

Still the same zope.interface, though, because I had installed that from the Arch Linux repos, and easy_install used what was already there.

So yeah. that's all I did, really. Don't remember exactly when. I'd have to check my e-mail; I did it after Brian e-mailed around about the need for add-lease, because I was still running 1.2 from back in the day, and I needed 1.3 latest dev version to get add-lease. so I just tried running it, and it worked fine (even though the tests fail) and I'm using it now.

Wait, I think I can tell you what revision I easy_install'd ... it's r3784.

That's all I know.
