Ok, now I've seen what was causing this behaviour, I haven't set the
max_builds keyword argument
in my buildslave. It is by default set to None in the BuildSlave
constructor, and since I have multiple builders, it allows any number
of builds to be performed in parallel...

I also could found an explanation in the documentation:

"The BuildSlave constructor can also take an optional max_builds
parameter to limit the number of builds that it will execute
simultaneously"
