Test is intended for testing tinderbox.

When we're set to test modular builds, we should make another tinderbox.

Go look at the logs that have been uploaded, and fix bugs :-).

One logs in as administrator, and messes with that one (for example,
if it is never going to reappear, deleting it entirely).

Note that various options can be passed from the tinderbox server
to the clients (so, for example, you can tell it to build a branch
of CVS, rather than head).

On the client side, you just kill the client...
