It partly was, but not that part above ;)

Coming to think of "unprivileged builds", maybe we should define what that 
means, actually. Right now, I see two possible things:
  1) create fully installable packages, like what NetBSD's 'build.sh -u
     release' does. This is hard. very.
  2) allow building as much as possible as "normal" user. This is what
     we got last week, mostly. see
     http://www.livejournal.com/users/jmmv/34019.html. This probably works
     for many things out of the box; finding the other cases would be good,
     and this is where your bulk builds can come into game.

I wrote my previous mail with #1 in mind, but only realized that we 
probably will want #2 instead. (Or do we?)
