Quite honestly, with monotone only provingly working on the free
Unixen, I'm still ambivalent.  On the other hand, I have no idea what
to do with the logs I've received so far, the errors are just...
weird and seem to depend quite a bit on things that aren't really
related to monotone.

I'll upload what I have a little later and see if I can have others
look at it as well.

But seriously, I can see making a release today or tomorrow, as long
as we're ready for whatever comes as a result.

An alternative that has been suggested to me is to make a release
branch in which the problems are worked on while things that are
waiting to merge with the trunk can do so.  What do you think?  If
that's the way to go, I'll redirect the build slaves to use the
release branch instead of the main trunk, of course.
Another question is, do we want slaves to work on both the release
branch and the main trunk, AND ARE THE SLAVE BUILD ADMINS OK WITH
THAT?

Cheers,
Richard
