Not without completely tearing down and rebuilding my src and ports
trees, and I can't afford that right now! :-(

If I just mount freefall on /a (I tried) then the CVS/Repository files
don't match..  It was all checked out at /host/freefall/a/ncvs. :-(

Hmmmm..  Part of the overall design was that advanced packages would
still be eaten by old versions of the utilities by simply having the
extended behavior disabled.  The silence is a feature, not a bug.. :-)
