It would be very useful to test/debug intermittents if we could define a number of rebuilds to perform via the Try Syntax. eg. try: -b d -p win32 -u all -t none -c 10 Would build win32 debug and run the testsuite 10 times in sequence.

This won't make it into the try syntax, however, we can modify mozci to help do that. We could add this to mach and run it from the tree. Similar to this: http://mozilla-ci-tools.readthedocs.org/en/master/use_cases.html#case-scenario-8-developer-needs-to-add-missing-platforms-jobs-for-a-try-push
This was implemented as a part of the service in bug 1163698 under the --rebuild option. It supports up to 20 rebuilds.
