I'm off to bed for tonight, but here's a progress report.

This is now essentially done; for those with access to armlinux.org
facilities, there's a new account "buildd" which functions, currently,
solely as the wanna-peruse account.  There's a new alias
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> which is the address to which build logs
should be sent for inclusion in the database; the old aliases on
medusa (such as <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) have been updated
to point to the new one, which ultimately routes to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They weren't broken, it turned out.  There was a typo in a date
formatting string somewhere.  D'oh.

This is done, at any rate, for build.php and fetch.php.

There are some new problems (other than the myriad old ones) that
still exist which I'll try and resolve soon:

  * the lists of the packages in the various states aren't auto-updating
    anymore;

  * the `view all packages' page seems to have broken -- still, it was
    unusably slow before anyway.
