I decided to scrap patch 1/2 in this series.  Partly because it would
not work as-is, and partly because I got another idea: instead of the
reduced jobset, we can limit it to x86_64 only.  That way we get
substitutes for developers, but avoid the expensive and often needless
rebuilds on other architectures.

I will be doing that from here on in between freeze cycles.

The other patch was pushed in bb9a99e6571c492d30f95c5b51ead6861d1dc098.
