I've been fairly careful, even paranoid, about avoiding conflicts.

The perl code that runs before we even try to check out the code, much less
build or install anything, is this:

die "$buildroot/$branch has $pgsql or inst directories!"
if (-d $pgsql || -d "inst");

inst is the install target.

Far more likely is that we are getting a conflict with a *NON* buildfarm
install.

Maybe we need to look at some rpath settings?
