Details

In a very unusual situation, a clobber build was requested immediately after after the nightly finished, resulting in two 2008050204 mac clobbers. The second build replaced the the first in the 2008/05/2008-05-02-04-trunk/ and latest-trunk/ directories. However the partial update was created from the first build (& yesterday's build), so anyone taking the partial didn't is now behind. And the wrong hash is used for the complete update, so anyone already behind can't move forward.
I'm going to do some surgery on the nightly update system, so that we regenerate the 2008050104 --> 2008050204 partial update for the second build and fix up the snippets. We might want to consider another clobber build to move everyone forward to a known point.
Both partial and complete updates now point at the second 2008050204 build, so anyone querying from now will get the latest build. The next mac build will be a CLOBBER, since the point of the initial clobber was to get people testing a build with fixes for bug 428071 and bug 406730.
