Start buildbot on boot on Linux so we don't need to wait for the */10 cron job to start it.

svn rev 3677.

Turns out puppet does support these special cron aliases, using the 'special' argument to cron specifications, as in:

  cron { "start-buildbot-on-boot":
    environment => ["MAILTO=[e-mail]", "DISPLAY=:2" ],
    command     => "/usr/local/bin/start-buildbot",
    user        => cltbld,
    special     => reboot,
    require     => [
                    User["cltbld"],
                    File["/usr/local/bin/start-buildbot"],
                   ],
  }
