I do not think it relates to the issue you mentioned, but there has been some network instability today, causing the Apple Silicon buildbot worker to disconnect from the master several times and causing some other builders not to start builds after being unable to connect to GitHub. I restarted any failed builds. The 10.6 i386 worker also experienced one of its customary kernel panics during a build, and I rebooted it and the build was reattempted.

I restart all build machines periodically to try to avoid problems. Most of them (except for 10.6 i386) were restarted yesterday.

The machine that runs the macOS 12 VM is the same Xserve that runs several other VMs, so I do not suspect any hardware problems. Xserves use error-correcting memory.

I'll try another build of rust now.
