The depth of our binary distribution problem depends on how optimized we
want to be. As a first cut, we need binaries for:

	68000
	sparc
	mips
	alpha
	i386
	ARM
	ns32532
	(and some that I've forgotten)

but life gets more interesting when one considers more processor specific
code generation, e.g. 68020? 68030? 68040? 68060? v7 sparc? v8 sparc? 386?
486? Pentium? Pentium Pro? Pentium II?

Sounds like we need a new post: port-package-master (someone for each port
to build the packages)

It gives us an interesting M x N problem. 9GB disks are getting cheaper,
and there is ccd...
