You might want to check out jhbuild.  It doesn't currently do everything 
that buildfarm or buildbot do, but I would guess that it handles large 
stacks of dependent modules a lot better.  A sample of its output is at:

You can do runs like this using the "jhbuild tinderbox -o outputdir".  
If there are particular features that you think would be useful 
additions to this mode, please file them in bugzilla.
