There is actually a webpage on this:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/SOP/BuildRootOverrides

which should probably be linked-to from some more prominent place
and/or updated to reflect what is actually required (i.e. "just e-mail
rel-eng") from mere mortal users of koji (as opposed to koji admins
who are the the only people who can actually run the commands listed
there).
