For what it's worth, the entire Buildbot configuration for
build.webkit.org is available in WebKit's subversion repository.  The
portions relevant to updating the status text of each step can be found at
<http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/browser/trunk/WebKitTools/BuildSlaveSupport/build.webkit.org-config/webkit/steps.py>,
and take a similar approach to the one Grig mentions.
