FWIW, I've updated the build script on winezeug
(http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/build_script/daily.sh) to
handle it (by setting it yourself, or it will retrieve it from git,
and as a last resort use $USER@$HOSTNAME).

I'm sure many of you have your own scripts, but I noticed at least a
couple people are using my script on test.winehq.org...
