This is opensshd ratelimit for new connections. It seems that even the
current high limits are not high enough.

The machine was busy, it takes a while for it to show up then. Also when
you submit the package for a second time, the folder gets wiped.

It seems that the version comparison used by BuildMe doesn't understand
the long version number. (7etch6maemo3) I'd need to find out if such
numbers are intended to be supported or that they are illegal.

Results are only available when OK or FAILED. If REJECTED nothing has
actually been done with it, other than removing it from the queue.
