hmm - would take somebody with SQL-level access to do this - the script
to update OS/compiler related data is only partially(ie not updating all
information) working...
But maybe it would be nice to have some sort of "notes about this
buildfarm member" text field that contains this information (or other
stuff like "this is a VM running on bar" or "this is really the same
hardware as animal bar just with configuration baz" ?
