That would be fine, maybe we can put in xbench too. But what about
the others?
* filesystems/{cpm, hfs, mtools} and emulation/{pcemu, wine} come to
* mind.
Wouldn't you rather have them together? I think they cater to the
same audience, and I don't think there are enough of them to warrant
two directories.

* ports/system
* ports/emulators
"system" sounds a little too generic to me, but "sysutils" isn't that
much better anyway so that's ok, I guess.
And about "emulators"...well, this goes to Rod's proposal too, but
xterm is an emulator too, and screen too, they just emulate different
things. Isn't there a word that describes that these are emulators
for the PC/Mac sort of things?
Sorry for bitching, if nobody comes up with a better idea, I guess
we'll go with "system" (my "sysutils" minus iozone) and "emulators".
Creating "benchmarks" too is fine for me, all I need to do is to ask
Rod to move iozone in the repository anyway. :)
