1)  The containers (in the branch-rewriter) are looking for files like 
this, according to lsof: 
/dependencies/sourcecode/pygettextpo/gettextpo.so .  I'm not sure why.

2) The containers on the 8-core machine are waiting on fd 11 when they 
wait.  If I'm using lsof correctly, that means it is waiting on 
/rootfs/dev/random (see bug 959352), which didn't exist.  I tried making 
a symlink but it didn't change anything, so maybe that's not the cause. 
 I was hopeful that this was the cause. :-/  It still is something we 
should get sorted.

3) Eventually, it turns out, the code proceeds anyway.  We eventually 
got just four test failures http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/893076/ in 3 hrs, 
46 mins, 49 secs, but I think we need to fix or work around that bug 
from #1 before we get too disheartened that eight cores only gives us 
two or three hours speed increase.  I think, once we get rid of these 
hangs, things will look noticeably better.
