Sorry Greg, totally my mistake in scanning the console log -- I was awestuck, 
actually -- but I had seen it hanging out there for quite a while; looks like 
maybe it was stuck on some kind of maven thing. I doubt that many of us are in 
the habit of checking up on our hudson builds -- that's sort of the whole point 
of CI. (It looks like Mylyn-Integration is the non-platform long build champion 
at 2 hr 40 min.)
