No, naturally not, but I'm hoping that at least some of them will
*read* the file before they start actually using /usr/ports. :-)

Even if I documented it at installation time it probably wouldn't do
much good since it's still a "35MB problem" then, and by the time it
becomes a "135MB problem" they're likely to have forgotten anything
they ever read in sysinstall. :-)
