Why build twice?

What we do internally is setup a second build target, that for the duration of 
the freeze does not self-update (builds are not available for later builds).  
Builds continue, and when we need some specific fix, we copy/tag it from the 
second build target to the frozen target.  Once the freeze is over, the 
packages remaining in the second target are just sourced into the maintarget 
and life goes on.
