No, it runs 'make buildworld' for every supported architecture, for an
appropriate definition of "supported".  This is exactly what 'make
universe' does, but the tinderbox has a lot of additional functionality
related to scheduling, reporting, updating the source tree, selecting
which kernels to build, cleaning the object directory ('rm -rf /usr/obj'
or its moral equivalent is much faster than 'make cleandir'), etc.  None
of this changes how the actual build happens, though.
