Ok, thanks for the update.  Kris stated on IRC that bento mostly only
has X11 packages to build, so I'd like to do the following.

- snarf the built packages off of bento and build the sparc64 disc1 from
them.
- upload the miniiso, disc2, and ftp bits for sparc64 to ftp-master now.

These two tasks are not implicitely linked, so if anyone objects to
either or both, let me know.
