I've found the entry on the Developer Wiki 
(http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Buildfarm_Howto). What I'll 
do is set-up three "farms" on my machine - one for 1.4, one for 1.5 and 
one for 1.6. It's been a while since I've had an excuse to write some 
Perl! I can't guarantee when I'll have it done as I'm away for a little 
over a week from Wednesday and I'm not allowed internet access!
