I would target the build slaves to the Mercurial repository already in
the testing phase, e.g by creating builders for building from commits
to the 3k branch. I hope Buildbot supports multiple change sources now.
Likewise, I'd also see commit emails being delivered in the test phase
already, and let committers make test commits to trigger this all (and
also to get acquainted with the Mercurial tools they are going to use,
without fear of breaking something).
