Something is very wrong with the sfarmer scripts.  There are currently
106 processes owned by sfarmer running on fafner, many of them running
identical commands.  There are 21 each of the following four commands:

   ./python -E -tt ../python/dist/src/Lib/test/regrtest.py -l
   /bin/sh ./buildit.sh
   make test
   sh -c       (PATH=/sw/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin; export PATH; cd $HO

(The last command is probably truncated by ps).

A new test run should never be started before the previous test run
has finished.  You could send a warning if a test run doesn't finish
when expected.

I will start to kill a few of the processes now to reclaim some memory
on fafner, but will leave a few of them for your debugging.
