#825: Zombie builds stuck in FileDownload
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
Reporter:  catlee  |       Owner:           
    Type:  defect  |      Status:  new      
Priority:  minor   |   Milestone:  undecided
 Version:  0.7.9   |    Keywords:           
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
 We have slaves running buildbot 0.7.9 attached to a master running 0.7.10.
 On occasion, a slave will get disconnected from the master while doing a
 FileDownload step.

 When it reconnects to the master, the master notices a duplicate
 connection, and attempts to disconnect the old slave.  It doesn't manage
 to stop the old build, however, so you can end up with one slave running
 old builds for weeks at a time until the master is finally restarted.

 It is impossible to Stop Build these old builds.
