Ok, I've cleared half the space by rm -r /root/.cpan.

Now I have

# df
Filesystem  1K-blocks   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a    128990  60094  58578    51%    /
/dev/ad0s1f    257998  81790 155570    34%    /tmp
/dev/ad1s1e   2030062 926976 940682    50%    /usr
/dev/ad0s1e    257998   2110 235250     1%    /var
procfs              4      4      0   100%    /proc


and

# du -x / | sort -rn | head -15
60093   /
15052   /root
13750   /root/nmap-3.50
12600   /sbin
6318    /modules.old
6318    /modules
4378    /bin
2766    /stand
1942    /root/nmap-3.50/nsock
1908    /root/nmap-3.50/nsock/src
1380    /etc
1174    /root/nmap-3.50/libpcre
1058    /root/nmap-3.50/libpcap-possiblymodified
888     /root/nmap-3.50/nbase
764     /root/nmap-3.50/docs


Let's say I want to

mv /sbin /usr/sbin
mv /root /usr/root

How problematic can this become? I can anticipate at least having to revise 
perl scripts that reference the sendmail path, although

ln -s /usr/sbin/sendmail /sbin/sendmail

will avoid having to 'fix' source code, right?
