You do realize all the buildbots are virtual machines and therefore
you have to look at what the other buildbots were doing between Aug 22
21:33:34 PDT 2013 - Aug 22 21:56:58 PDT 2013, right? My first thought
would be some kind of file i/o locking but that's just a shot in the
dark.

Or did something change that I'm not aware of? This issue also came up
while building pypy, if I recall correctly.
