 If you're using the Snowglobe svn repo, the channel will be set to
"Snowglobe Test Build" and this is good enough under the policy considering
the changes you're making (thanks for testing patches BTW... :) ).

If you distribute your build to friends though (you don't mention doing this
but, just saying...) you may want to modify that name (see
llcommon/llversionviewer.h).

Cheers,
