[Buildbot-devel] Python PATH problems?

[Grig Gheorghiu]

One work around would be to invoke a python script in your custom
MozillaCheckoutClientMk build step, and do the right thing inside that
script on each platform -- i.e. the Linux boxes would call cvs, whereas the
Windows boxes would call \full\path\to\cvs.exe.
