    In the past, I've been able to resolve issues similar to this one    by flushing the animal's git repo (rm -rf pgmirror.git) and letting    it pull that down fresh on the next run. Not clear if you included    that when you "removed the buildroot"?

Yes, I did "rm -rf buildroot".  After that, I verified (with "diff -r") that I had no changes
vs. the distribution tarball other than having my build-farm.conf present.

Don't do that. All the state is stored under the buildroot, and you'd be throwing that away. 999 times out of 1000 this should do the trick:

rm -rf buildroot/[RH]*/pgsql

The other 1 time out of 1000 you could also remove the mirror like Tom suggests as well.
