would it be worth marking the new buildbot-worker as obsoleting the old
buildbot-slave?

Just to confirm I appear to have it working now.  Attempting to get
buildbot-master to work on Cygwin failed miserably, but I have a
basically working automated build server for the Cygwin Git package
being mastered from a CentOS VM.

I've at least vague intentions of writing up the process of getting this
running, if that'd interest folk, once I have the build server
competently running tests and checking results and so forth. I can't be
the only person who'd like to automate the Cygwin package maintainer
processes more.

Thanks again!
