On related note, I also noticed it, and I don't like it because it uses that
word "autobuilder" -- nobody ever calls those things like that in Debian, at
least from what I saw in the last few years. They're most commonly referred
to as "<arch> build machines" or "<arch> build daemons".

"Automatic package building system" would be an appropriate description
that is actually semi-understandable and less ambiguous ;) And as for a
shorter name, "buildd".
