For others who may wish to run build farm hosts that are not yet
registered, there is a better way to do this.  If you read the
build_test.fns script you will see variables that can be set such as
'nologreturn', and you can set these locally in
build_test.settings.local

so, just create a new file build_test.settings.local with:

nologreturn=yes

in it. 

That's the right way to do this, which won't then try and contact
Samba.org at all.
