Except that "testing by frequent uploads" was not what I did.  I had a
problem which I had already determined did not happen in normal builds
on my machine or the failing systems, and did not happen inside
pbuilder on my machine.

Well, I used pbuilder at Blars Blarson's suggestion.  But of course I
did this first; I did not simply "test by frequent uploads".  I made
only one test upload, and it did not in fact impact the overloaded
buildds at all.

And, I took that step only when I was convinced that the problem
didn't happen on my machines (ppc and i386) at all, in any build
environment.  (I was correct about this, btw.)
