Here's an idea: instead of having the buildbot report things from
rev-upgrade, how about allowing users to automatically upload their
own rev-upgrade lists as part of their mpstats submissions, if they
have the mpstats port installed? That way the server wouldn't have to
keep a bunch of old ports from previous builds installed, and people
would be able to see what rev-upgrade errors actual users are actually
experiencing...
