That sounds worth trying, as it removes the need for us to actively
check the buildbot server's webreport. Alternatively we should be
able to use the RSS/Atom feed.

One concern is if we have (say) 8 builtbot slaves, and a change on
the trunk accidentally breaks a unit test (on all platforms), does that
mean we'd get one email or eight?
