Here's a list by arch/machine from the distrib set lists for 1.4 of what
contains /usr/share that's not in an MI set (I've left man pages out as
well):

	md.amiga  ./usr/share/keymaps/amiga/din.map
	md.amiga  ./usr/share/keymaps/amiga/es.map
	md.amiga  ./usr/share/keymaps/amiga/fr.map
	md.amiga  ./usr/share/keymaps/amiga/sw.map
	md.amiga  ./usr/share/keymaps/amiga/us.map
	md.atari  ./usr/share/keymaps/atari/de.map
	md.atari  ./usr/share/keymaps/atari/fr.map
	md.atari  ./usr/share/keymaps/atari/uk.map
	md.atari  ./usr/share/keymaps/atari/us.map
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220h.808
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220h.810
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220h.814
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220h.816
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220l.808
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220l.810
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220l.814
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220l.816
	md.i386   ./usr/share/pcvt/keycap.pcvt
	md.x68k   ./usr/share/keymaps/x68k/ascii_kmap
	md.x68k   ./usr/share/keymaps/x68k/jis_kmap

So the good news is that there's no conflicts.  Isn't pcvt meant to
be going?  If so, that's another one that's easy to fix :-) The Amiga
and Atari keymaps seem to be just a binary dump of a table - should
be easy.  The x68k keymaps are part of a stripped a.out file - maybe
not so easy...

A start to this is probably creating a separate "share" set now and then
try to remove all the ad.* and md.* files later on as things get moved
to share/mi.  Sound good?
