 * I dunno, but when I tried to set this and then do anything with ports
 * on my brand-new, freshly installed 3.0-971007-SNAP machine, fetch
 * puked.  Perhaps the double slashes no longer work now given Bill's
 * latest changes to fetch(1)?

Could be.

 * I also notice that bash fell over in its installation because
 * /usr/share/info was missing (I didn't install the info dist).
 * Odd since bash wants nothing directly to do with /usr/share/info,
 * so I think it's actually our auto-dir-entry-inserter thing which
 * is falling over.  Just yet another thing to test with. :-)

This is a known problem.  Look at the Makefile.  Maybe we should come
up with a better way to obtain a "skeleton" info/dir file.

 * Hmm.  OK, I guess I should put it back the way it was then, but we
 * still need to make fetch deal with empty // specs then.

If it's incorrect to have a double-slash, we should fix all the ports
and relevant files (just add a trailing slash to all the DIST_SUBDIR
and MASTER_SITE_SUBDIRs).  But that has to wait until after 2.2.5, as
the current set of files at least work for 2.2-stable and I don't want 
to go change too many things now.
