This isn't really the place to ask about running buildfarm - it has its
own mailing list to which you should have been subscribed.

A single animal really shouldn't run multiple configurations, because it
makes their history much less valuable. If you want to run multiple
configurations you should register multiple buildfarm members. There is
already support for running several animals on a single host/repo and
this will be improved in a release that I will be preparing RSN.
