[Dxspider-support] New check_build.pl

[Stephen Carroll]

Kin,

Your check_build.pl is working fine, using the latest version. Great job!

As a follow-on question from a newby linux (Ubuntu) guy, is there a way to
force my computer to reboot after the build update and the cluster shuts
down? Right now, the cluster shuts down and does nothing else.
