This list would be based on OS X installations, not on the function the
buildslaves serve. Maybe we should split the list of builders between
those tied to a machine and those that could run anywhere?

My intention was that the builders "docs-guide" and "docs-www" can use
the same slave. I do not see a need to use separate buildslave instances
for them. That will make it easier to just add new builders for more
tasks (for example portindex2sql or generating a web version of our port
help/man pages).

The configuration for "ports" has become special, as we make the
assumption of a 1:1 mapping between builders and buildslaves.
