Yes, the command-line is the primary.
Now we run all of our buildbots with different and custom environment and these kind of options are not port or platform specifics so we can't set them on the buildbot master.
The wrapper is not good because the buildbot master will "call" the original script not your wrapper. So I think that's the simplest way to set different child process number on buildbots like WEBKIT_WAIT_FOR_HTTPD in ORWT to set http lock and BUILD_WEBKIT_ARGS in build-webkit script.
