XMP is just like PRE, with the exception that the content may include 
"<" and ">" signs.  Deprecated, discouraged, but still works.

I build on my machine, upload the gump-log, and then post it on 
cvs.apache.org.  Here's the relevant portion of the perl script that 
runs on cvs.apache.org:

   ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year) = localtime;
   $date=sprintf("%d-%2.2d-%2.2d", $year+1900, $mon+1, $mday);

   chdir "/www/cvs.apache.org/builds/gump";
   rmtree $date, 1, 1 if -d $date;
   mkdir "$date", 0775;
   system "unzip -q -j -d $date /home/rubys/staging/gump-log.zip";
   unlink "latest";
   symlink "$date", "latest";
   unlink "/home/rubys/staging/gump-log.zip";

   $count=0;
   foreach (reverse sort <20??-*>) {
     next if $count++<7
     system "tar czf Attic/$_.tar.gz $_";
     rmtree $_, 1, 1;
   }
