What about rate limiting between parallel checkouts for builds for different 
architectures?  Are those staggered, or will svn.freebsd.org be seeing 6-7 
different svn connections starting at the same time, when the builds start?

The logs seem to show that all attempted builds start at the exact same time.

Examples (snipped from 3 different mails):
TB --- 2012-09-25 02:30:00 - starting RELENG_7 tinderbox run for i386/i386
TB --- 2012-09-25 02:30:00 - starting RELENG_7 tinderbox run for ia64/ia64
TB --- 2012-09-25 02:30:00 - starting RELENG_7 tinderbox run for amd64/amd64

It sleeps for 30, then 60, then 90 seconds and gives up after the fourth
attempt.

Yes, that's why I tried it instead, but my point is that you may need to
sleep a bit between tries; if svn is faster, you're more likely to hit any
rate limit.

I could be wrong, but I can't see any other explanation for the weird
failures we've both been seeing.

Both should work, but svn is significantly faster.

I've found that svn:// seems to be more aggressive with rate-limiting if
that's what it does.

Have you tried using http:// ?

I recently switched the machine that builds 7 and 8 from csup to svn.
Unfortunately, it seems to have trouble maintaining a stable connection
to svn.freebsd.org.  I'm testing a patch that makes it retry up to three
times before giving up, so hopefully the spurious failures will go away
soon.
