The way to set this up is to add
CPPFLAGS => '-DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS',
to the config_env section of buildfarm config file.
If you do this, you probably only want to run your animal on HEAD and
run, say, once or twice a day. BTW, the buildfarm scripts contain
mechanisms to prevent them from colliding with themselves, making it
safe to run the scripts (especially run_branches.pl) very frequently
without having to worry if a previously scheduled run has completed.
