This is why I've been cleaning up older stuff on ftp-master... :-)

I finished that today with the removal of the packages-6.1-release
trees.  I had run out of space to store stuff in one of the places I
archive that stuff and needed to wait a bit longer before I was able to
remove them.

I'm done with removing the older stuff now.  There should have been a
pretty big drop in disk usage through the past several weeks.
