To be clear here--we still have an archive of nightly builds dating back to 
2004, so you should be able to bisect to a single day using that. We haven't 
ever had a great policy for retaining individual CI builds like these 
tinderbox-builds. They're definitely useful, and storage is not that expensive, 
but given the number of build configurations we produce nowadays and the volume 
of changes being pushed we can't archive everything forever.
