Details

I'm doing universal builds and don't want to have to completely rebuild each time. As well as building in all the appropriate directories (for each architecture) I'm then doing make -f client.mk postflight_all. This takes a long time since it packages up the tests, is there a way to avoid that? If I have run mochitests or similar in the objdir then postflight fails to unify because now one of the objdirs have .pyc and .log files in the tests directory. Either killing or ignoring those would be nice.
We no longer do universal builds (bug 1295375).
