Yes, the last problem was that main/curl needed adding to
RepositoryExternal.mk. I've committed a fix and am testing it on the
FreeBSD bot now.

The bots will be quite unstable going forward, as I am actively porting
modules to gbuild. They help me a lot to test different platforms quickly,
with different build settings - my PC mostly uses system libraries, the
bots internal ones. If you don't see commits to SVN for a while, and the
bots are still broken, then there's a problem ;-).
