It's probably hard to divide packages, but XFree86 isn't a package (in
the sense of the ports collection) anyway.

Go into the XF8632 directory of your CD-ROM, and read the
documentation there.  There's a file describing the purpose of the
various tarballs.  Basically, what you don't need to copy is all the
Xservers you'll never use since they are not for your hardware (but
care!, do copy the VGA16 server since the new and nifty XF86Setup tool
will need it), all the XFree98 stuff (it's for the Japanese PC98), the
sources, and most likely the linkkits.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
