I was just looking at the 1.6.1 install sets, and it surprised me that
they were not in the shared/ALL directory. In fact they differed for
each of the 3 architectures I was downloading:

-rw-r--r-- rhialto  15513696 Apr 14 02:17 ./i386/binary/sets/xfont.tgz
-rw-r--r-- rhialto   5863237 Apr 14 02:16 ./alpha/binary/sets/xfont.tgz
-rw-r--r-- rhialto   5384932 Apr 14 02:20 ./vax/binary/sets/xfont.tgz

I would think that even if they were endian-sensitive, just 2 different
sets would suffice. And if the difference is caused by having different
collections of fonts or something like that, then that seems to be a bug
to me, since I would absolutely expect the same fonts on all
architectures. So, what is going on?
