Okay. Then I'll quit looking to report which way butler1.nyi.freebsd.org
is working (implicitly: search direction information).

I will report if I see any new examples. (Seems unlikely.)


Side note . . .

It took me a while to find what to look to find the head version
and jail version involved. For what I reported (powerpc):

22:12:03  uname:
22:12:03  FreeBSD FreeBSD-head-powerpc-build.jail.ci.FreeBSD.org 11.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 12.0-CURRENT #0 r330304M: Sat Mar  3 02:23:02 UTC 2018     peter at build-12.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CLUSTER12  amd64

Now I know.
