sdwilsh requested that I kill off xpcshell tests on all platforms for the following revisions on mozilla-central:

I hacked up cancellator.py to do this:

        for brid, buildername in getPendingBuilds(db, options.branch, options.revision):
	    if "xpcshell" not in buildername:
		continue
            found = True
            if options.force:
                print "Cancelling pending build on", buildername,
                try:
                    cancelPendingBuild(brid)
                    print "OK"
                    killed = True
                except:
                    print "FAILED"
            else:
                print "Would cancel pending build on", buildername

        for r in getRunningBuilds(db, options.branch, options.revision):
	    if "xpcshell" not in r[1]:
		continue
            found = True
            url = urlFromResult(r)
            if options.force:
                print "Cancelling running build", url,
                try:
                    cancelBuild(url)
                    print "OK"
                    killed = True
                except:
                    print "FAILED"
            else:
                print "Would cancel running build at", url

Thanks!  Next time I'll file a bug myself even!

See also bug 581775. We're accumulating hung win7 machines when they hang in ipc tests, and then buildbot doesn't kill the process tree properly, the job doesn't terminate and the slave ends up doing nothing.
