Any thoughts on this Patchset?

Today I had troubles with our builder. After removing the whole source
directory and restart the build, the autobuilder somehow checked out and
resetted the autobuilder git! (the dora branch was checked out, which I
tried to checkout from a source branch). So far I could not reconstruct
what exactly happend, but the builder must have been in the wrong
directory when issuing some commands... Ugly. Calls for sandboxes :-)

Anyway, I lost my custom master.cfg since git restored the version from
the dora branch (always remember to backup!)...
