Comment (by RockHed):

 It's not restarting "often" (the failures here were induced manually to
 test this), but it has a few times due to an unrelated issue.

 I put a try/except around the line in question (the sourcestamps.extend
 function), and it seems to have worked, with a small glitch -- the build
 isn't seen on the buildslave status page, only on the builder status page,
 with revision unknown.  Going into it to see the details gets an
 exception, because cxt['start'] is 'None'.  I can probably hack at this a
 bit more, but I've reached the main goal, which was to make sure the next
 run is incremented.  Thanks for the help.
