Sorry for replying to my own mail...

In list.freebsd-current I wrote:

I just noticed that the naming of the architecture directories
isn't consistent either:

In releases/snapshots they're called "axp" and "x86", while in
ports they're called "alpha" and "i386".

Personally I prefer the latter (because "Alpha" is more well-
known and 'catchy' than "AXP", and "x86" could imply that we're
running on 286, too, and it's more in line with "sparc64"),
but at least the naming should be consistent.

Just my 0.02 Euro...

Regards
   Oliver
