[hobbit] eventlogs

[Brian Lynch]

Depending on the granularity of your tests, the allevents file will
give you the host, the test that failed and the color transition (i..e
from green to red).  If you are looking for the content of the alert,
then you'll have to poke through the history files or force hobbit to
write out the host status files (i.e. enable 'bbstatus').
