time.xmlrpc.com seems dead (no DNS entry), which leads to failures on one of the stable buildbots (redirecting DNS catchall?):

Not sure whether this is actually new, but it may be that Dave Winer is migrating all this stuff to Amazon S3, and that he just didn't get to restoring the time service yet.

We've had problems with this service going away for a while before.  I think the test was marked skip for at least a year before someone (it might have been me) noticed that it was back and reactivated it.  There's a ticket in here somewhere for it.
