Description

The Postfix MTA (www.postfix.org) has a tool called 'postconf' which will parse your config file and tell you what value is being used for various configuration settings. It's an easy way to make sure you haven't screwed up the syntax of the main.cf file.

We could add something similar for buildbot, which would tell you about all the special variables that are set in the master.cfg file. This would be come more important if/when we implement #9 (use names like Builders rather than dictionary keys like c['builders']).

This wouldn't really apply in 1.0 anyway.
