Hi all,

I pushed feature/gbuild_merge branch that merges 4 gbuild-related
branches rebased on current (~3 days old) master. It seems it still
builds fine on linux and mingw, but I would appreciate more testing. The
current plan is to get it back into master before 3.6 feature freeze,
which do not leave much time (Sorry it took me so much time to do the
merge, but there were a lot of changes, e.g., the recent TDE
integration, and feature/gbuild_connectivity was really old (created in
December or so)).

The branch contains conversion of 5 modules to gbuild: connectivity,
reportbuilder, scp2, shell and testtools.
...

After 3 days of fixing, it reportedly builds on MacOS X and Windows now
(big thanks to Norbert, Matus, David and Noel for testing!) Therefore I
am going to merge it tomorrow morning (around 6.00 UTC).

The number of modules newly added to tail_build is not as good as I
expected--only 9, if I counted correctly. On the other side all the
really big ones are there already :-) There is experimental branch
feature/tail_build that adds 19 more, but it requires a change to
build.pl, so I do not intend to push it into 3.6 . Of course, if people
who actually know something about the build.pl script look at commit
726ac115a981567b3f41613d0e0163bd010e6b17 and tell me that I am not a
total idiot, or even that it might work at the right phase of moon, I
can be convinced otherwise :-)

I have run another ~15 builds of this branch with different
configurations on Linux and MinGW and did not notice any problem, so I
am more in favour of using it even for 3.6. And since I have not
received any negative response on it (Michael was in favour of it and
Norbert indifferent), I am going to merge it too, after all.
