It's the trunk; at the moment the debugger is sitting there with
python_d.exe at a breakpoint.  The current instance of python_d being
debugged is only a day or so old.  I don't know when this problem
started happening, but I think it's been a while (it was happening for
all the visible builds on the dashboard when I first noticed it a day
or two ago).
