As long as the buildbot does not do 'install', the mtn in $PATH
_should_ be the "known working" one. So I'm not clear why anything
else is required.

No problem.

These steps work, but now I'm getting weird errors from 'make all';
"g++ - no source files". It worked fine the first time I tried it on
this machine, and it works fine when run in this 'mixed MinGW/Cygwin'
environment on my other machine, but now not on this one - arrgghh!

It does work on this machine when run in 'pure MinGW'. So I need
another exception: ../../make-all-local.sh

I think the final step is 'make check'? You might as well make that an
exception as well: ../../make-check-local.sh

Does the output from each command get logged somewhere? It's really
annoying to have to try to duplicate running the command to see the
failure. `twisted.log' only shows the command line and the status, not
the actual output.
