One additional benefit... we've talked about allowing certain patches to
be automatically verified by the buildfarm to guard against bitrot and
provide additional testing, but one of the big issues has been how to
distribute those patches. Using a distributed SCM would make it easier
to do this; we'd just have to supply buildfarm machines with a list of
approved branches that they should be pulling from (or perhaps some SCMs
would allow a means of tagging that).
