Which box is the "build box" ?  For once I tried to do a "remote commit"
(rather than from freefall, et al) but it appears to have had had some
drawbacks.  Having seen comments about "expect -current to be broken over
the next X months", I'm not sure what the stink is all about.  This isn't
a commit to -STABLE, after all.
