Occasionally the x86_64-gnu-aux builder fails due to a spurious build failure:
make[2]: warning: -jN forced in submake: disabling jobserver mode.

WARNING: 'gperf' is missing on your system.
You might have modified some files without having the proper
tools for further handling them. Check the 'README' file, it
often tells you about the needed prerequisites for installing

The WebRender people prepared a fix, but it did not land in https://github.com/servo/webrender yet. Once it lands, we'll need to update cargotest to point to the new commit.
Putting it P-high so we check in on it weekly during the infrastructure team meeting.
