buildbot builds out of order

[Simon Heimberg]

And I am irritated that older changesets can be checked on buildbot after
newer ones. Or some twice.
Builds 92 [1] and 94 [2] (on windows) test the same revision. The only
difference in the build properties is the repository (hg and crew). 

The problem is that progress is not clearly visible. I was irritated that
the number of failures was going up and down. And that some changes are
listed twice as being included the 1st time in a build.
 
Does anybody have any idea how to improve this?
My suggestions:
  * Improve the code sending the changeSource request
     (probably changegroup hook(s), could maybe check $HG_URL not being
the other repo)
  * only use one repo (maybe crew, the other would push to this often/soon)
  * filter this out somehow in buildbot (how?)
