No, the three OS X buildbots are all online and reporting failures.  As
far as I can remember, they haven't been green for weeks.

They are at the end of the buildbot list, so off-screen if you are using
a normal browser.  You have to scroll to see them.

Um -- saying what, the buildbots are red?  Shouldn't having green
buildbots be a part of the release process?  In fact, it is -- but none
of the OS X buildbots are part of the "stable" set.  Why is that?
