The "svn" step of the test builders takes about 4.5 minutes, compared to about 
15 minutes to run the tests. I don't know if having to update two different 
source trees is the main problem here.

I guess you're implying that having one more-up-to-date bot and one 
even-farther-behind bot would be better than the current situation. 
Unfortunately, right now the Debug tests are far more stable than the Release 
ones, so your proposed change would presumably make the stable, Debug tests be 
even farther behind than they are today.

That probably is the best way to do it, if we decide this is a good change to 
make.
