I'm not clear on whether this involves just undoing the recent changes I
made, or if the buildfarm code itself needs changes.
FWIW I did this part:

But what about "--enable-tap-tests"? That makes the full buildfarm cycle
across all branches take something like 2.5 hours. I removed that part
for now at least.
