They will be for these files.  This is why I created the separate
pkgbase.freebsd.org infrastructure; clusteradm decided at the last
minute that it should be exposed via pkg.freebsd.org but those
systems just 302 requests over to the "real" servers which are
guaranteed to lag no more than 60 seconds.

By the time a security advisory goes out, pkgbase bits will be
available for download.  As release engineer and former security
officer, this was my #1 design requirement for pkgbase. :-)
