 Is there a good reason the distrib/amd64/cdrom/ make target needs to
 be different from the floppy targets in this respect?  And why does
 not "release" dump the built bits into the appropriate RELEASEDIR
 subdirectory?  I think the Principle Of Least Astonishment has been
 seriously violated here.
