The $PACKAGE_REPOSITORY directory, typically /usr/ports/packages/, will
normally contain subdirectories for arch, as well as, further
subdirectories for desired\allowed redistribution (cdrom, ftp, ...).

        /usr/ports/packages/i386/
        /usr/ports/packages/i386/all
        /usr/ports/packages/i386/ftp
        /usr/ports/packages/i386/cdrom

The /usr/ports/packages/no-arch/ directory does not contain further
subdirectories for desired\allowed redistribution?

If something with problematic redistribution like Java 1.5 was broken
into multi-packages (main, docs, ...), and the docs were properly put
in the no-arch directory, then we now have a redistribution problem.

Is the no-arch redistribution subdirs a problem worth fixing?
