That is good but we will be building from a branch when it's time to 
prepare the binaries. Or do we first prepare the binaries then branch?

Any idea how I access and run the auto tester from my machine? I've 
tried contacting Brad Anderson but no response. Maybe I had the wrong 
email address.

This is the script I use to build DMD. It currently assumes there is a 
file (VERSION) in the current folder containing an existing branch tag 
(2.064, 2.064.2, etc...), retrieves the relevant repositories (DMD, 
PHOBOS, DRUNTIME and TOOLS), builds them, and produces a gz2 and dmg 
file in the $HOME directory. It is very brittle so any suggestions to 
make it more usable would be appreciated. The end goal is to run it as 
the last step in the auto tester which will eliminate more than half of 
the commands it currently contains.
