Hmmm.  I thought you were asking about how the text is marked up.  
Maybe you're referring to the directories I'm touching?  If that's the 
case...

For the documents that build for multiple architectures, the common/
directory is where (almost) all of the SGML source lives.  Within that 
directory, we do some SGML foo to conditionally include release notes 
items or hardware notes items for specific architectures.

The directories named for architectures	(i.e. src/release/doc/
en_US.ISO8859-1/relnotes/i386) contain a little bit of infrastructure,
and they're the default places where the rendered text lands (e.g. the
HTML, PDF, etc. files).  But in general there is not much real text in
those directories (one exception is the processor-specific parts of the
hardware notes).

In other words, src/release/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/relnotes/common/new.sgml
is the place where all of the release notes content lives.  The act 
of marking something as i386-only consists of changing an attribute in 
an SGML tag, not of moving the text to a different file.

Bruce.
