yes, that seems useful.

Anyway, we managed to get new builds. (we switched to ext3 for the chroots and did a `pacman -Scc` in the chroots.  i would switch back to ext4 later to see if it breaks again, but first let's have it run like this for a while and see how well it works)

images are at http://releng.archlinux.org/isos/2011.08.06/
they are completely untested.
any feedback is welcome (on http://www.archlinux.org/releng/feedback/ and bugtracker if you find issues)
