FWIW, checkout of these things took 5+hrs, staying on the local
.freebsd.org net w/o hitting the 'net at all.

CVS replace buffer that was just imported with the backup from the Attic
cleanup. This should look identical to what Steve committed, except

PLISTs.
Note: I know that this is going to break some symlinks and/or .so
includes, I will back some of these out as I run into these during

if you ever nhave needed to do something like:
tar cf - <big_dir> | rsh cat > /dev/tape then you will appreciate this.
do something like
tar cf - <big_dir> | buffer | rsh othersys "cat | buffer > /dev/tape"
to enjoy HUGE increases in speed while your tape drive does not
incessantly back/forth/stop/start.
