Hmm, I bet I know why.  sysinstall wants the servers in a Servers/ directory,
and the PC-98 servers in some other directory, but the XFree86 build-bindist
script doesn't do that.  Grrr, very frustating that they don't commit
everything (like the magical extract binary) but rely on vil undoc magic to
do the last bits.  *sigh*
