Details

It would be nice if ongoing builds without a "C" are restarted when there is a new checkin available. This will cut down the time one has to wait for a result of a checkin. If a "CVS storm" is a problem - could we at least have this for the fastest "Dep" boxes on each of the three primary platforms?
This is really only going to help where we have a slow build, and we should maybe add a pref to enable it there. If we detect a no-op build, we probably want to continue the tests part of the tbox loop for the performance machines, and we'll still wait around for the minimum time to avoid tbox reporting storms.

No-op builds are pretty much gone, so this isn't a problem any more.
