Aside that I was going to mail off-list, but it might help others: thanks for 
doing that! Narrowing regression ranges is a pain, but extremely helpful in 
finding problems. Doing it by building on each bisect is extra-exciting, and I 
appreciate your work, there.

If you (or others reading this) are helping to hunt down regression ranges in 
the future, consider this my regularly scheduled pitch for mozregression.

It takes a minute to learn how it works, but it will bisect through nightlies 
and let you say "yes, good" or "no, bad" until it finds a one-day range, and 
then give you an hg-link to the range itself. Awfully helpful, and yet I'm 
often surprised to find that people don't know about it.
