Scratch that last part, since we're seeing differences between the platforms, I
went ahead and extended it to all three builds.  The windows one, as expected,
is failing right now.  It matches what SHOO reported earlier tonight.

The three doc links across the top of the results page are only for the most
recently completed build.  If the most recent build fails, the link will only
show what docs it made it through, if any.
