Slaves file is now a template.

Change 0dc868e removed the `conf/slaves` file and made it a template like most of the other configuration files. This means you can no longer run `make-distribution.sh` unless you manually create a slaves file to be statically bundled in your distribution, which seems at odds with making it a template file.
