Re: buildworld times

Oops, the two times that I should have sent are:

logs/qui-gon-2:     2031.12 real      1570.18 user       387.54 sys
logs/qui-gon-3:     4183.40 real      1625.23 user      2462.64 sys

The logs/qui-gon-4 one was for a 5.2.1-release buildworld. Admittedly
not much difference, but I wanted to be as precise as I could.
