Could it be rebooted, then?

As we march towards 3.0 build.gnome.org will be very important to keep
track of build failures, and having it down is a major inconvenience.

Perhaps fixed.gnome.org could be limited to running the build master,
and another host would act as slave?

Also there is the general issue of the difficulty to add build slaves,
at a time where they would be quite useful, so it would be really nice
if https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621236 was addressed.
