I'm working (really slowly) on fixing the remaining issues in the 
stdlib-2.7.5 branch. (I think it's a reasonably good task for a beginner 
like me.) I didn't want to pipe in for the 2.2 release, as I'm the wrong 
person to do this kind of work on PyPy quickly (or any kind of work for 
that matter quickly for PyPy). With a bit of luck, I should have it done 
for the 2.3 release, though.

The thing that would be really helpful to me is if someone could take a 
look at the Buildbot for the stdlib-2.7.5 branch and have it rebuild 
automatically on a commit on the branch. I think this used to work when 
the branch was called stdlib-2.7.4. My guess is that the branch was 
renamed but the buildbot's config wasn't updated to track the new 
branch. Could someone who has access to the buildbot's config check this?

Thanks,
