There are a number of directories that are recognized by most porters
as the standard locations for certain types of files, but are not
listed in BSD.local.dist.  Three of those (which I regularly run into)
are:

        share/java/classes      (Jar files)
        share/sgml              (SGML DTDs, catalogs and entity sets)
        share/xml               (XML DTDs, catalogs and entity sets)

I'd like to formalize these by adding them to BSD.local.dist (see
attached patch), and removing the corresponding @dirrm entries from
the plists of various ports.

BTW, once share/java/classes is formalized, it would be trivial to add
code to javavmwrapper to automatically add any .jar or .zip files
found there to the CLASSPATH environment variable.
