No prob; it all just runs itself.

Except... that there does now seem to be a significant problem with
master's compilation time.  In practice this is now taking so long that
it has no chance of completing (on my build machine) within a day.
Hence for now I'm going to disable the master build.

Ah right, thanks for pointing that out.
