Ideally I would chain that job behind a sucessful build, so that this
does not happen
iow first fidn a 'good' commit, then submit the job....
but before that happen, the msot usefull way would be I think to just
drop that build, and retry a bit latter with hopefully a good build at
that time

This is not really part of the product we package... os just put an
appropriate open-source license statement at the to of the script.
and prolly the best is to find a place for it in 'buildbot.git'
(accessble via gerrit)
