What would the good people think of moving gcc, gas, ld etc., as well
as include files and static libraries out of the bin dist and into a
separate distribution, called e.g. prog or devel? There are a lot of
cases (e.g. firewalls, mail gateways) where you neither need nor want
build tools, and PicoBSD is sometimes too radical. This would provide
a sort of middle path between the too-minimalist PicoBSD and the
not-minimalist-enough bin dist we have today.
