> In the middle of a series of 19 checkins, you mean

May be the snapshot script could use a stable checkout, if 
the script is using contrib/gcc_build checkout I can propose
a patch to implement a stable-checkout option. Algorithm:

checkout
for I in 1 .. MAX loop
   wait X
   update
   exit when no files updated
end loop

With X being something like 10 or 15 minutes, it should be *very*
unlikely to get something inconsistent due to a serie of checkins, and
it would probably also survive an ooops commit / revert cycle, at the
cost of some wait.  MAX could be set so that X * MAX < time between
automatic run / 2.
