BTW, I restarted the buildbot master at approximately 3:00 today, and
all of the slaves except for the one on testing.esilibrary.com (the
main buildbot server) reattached nicely. I started up the slave
instance there manually by running "buildbot-slave start
//build-dir//" as the slaveopensrf user.

I also note that I failed to document how to stop the buildbot server
cleanly. "buildbot stop //build-dir//" is the magic, there.
