Yes, I understand.  'upload' should only put binary packages into the
target directory (which may or may not be local) that do not have any
security issues.  I don't know whether or not it only ``uploads''
current versions or also any older versions.

Actually, 'upload' also checks for outdated packages (or at least it
invokes linktpkgsrc with '-p').  Without having tested it and just from
looking at it, I think that 'upload' should do what you want.
