[Box Backup-dev] Build failures in recent trunk

Hi Chris,

I've had Trac performing builds on various platforms over the last week
or so, and Per has kindly just donated 3 more build hosts.

The bad news is that the client is currently failing on at least three
platforms, and the tests are always failing (usually the bbackupd test).

https://www.boxbackup.org/trac/build/Trunk has the details (once you're
logged in to Trac - this information is currently only available to
admins and build host owners because hostnames/IP addresses are
revealed).

I'm going to skip the November snapshot and try and do one mid-December,
if the issues can be fixed.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news in the run-up to Christmas!

James
