ouch, that's slow!

yeah, we probably need a mac blacklist category.

A document or script showing how to set up a mac would be a good byproduct.
(http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX is fine but kind of general, it has too
many choices;
a specific document or script showing exactly how you did it would be great.)

Sounds like I should go back to a virtual desktop, since that
would also solve the no-monitor-plugged-in problem.

No, email is currently disabled again, there were too many new-bot failures.
(There's also a buildbot bug related to attachments they've asked for
more data on.)
I'll enable it again when I have time.
