Thanks.  Is that a single button somewhere or do I need to cancel the
pending builds individually when there are several waiting?

In any event it looks like the retries of the failing 3.x build
stopped on their own.

I suspect, however, that as soon as something else commits to the 3.x
branch and causes a new test, that test_crashers (presumably from
changeset 9c6dcb5d8f01) will likely just take the slaves down again.

Perhaps the test is just too hard to execute reliably on the entire
build farm?
