Exactly. /usr/src/sys will be unaffected by the copy - the old files will
be cvs rm'ed so that 500K moves from the old names to the new ones.
The repository would grow as a result though - that is the only downside
and it is almost going to get lost in the noise with things like gcc and
binutils imports in the pipeline.

If Bruce is happy with it, then I am too.

Cheers,
