I'm doing a package build right now with dpb3 -a -j2 and all seems well
so far with 275 packages built.  Lang/mono failed for some reason but
everything else seems ok.

One comment is that the single char letters for the status seems a bit
cryptic and real words would be better, but this is only a nit.

I assume that I can break the build and restart it when at work in
the morning, and it will continue on.

Now all I have to do is find a quad core to play on. ;-)

Thanks Marc, this looks good (reading the code now) !
