What space savings are avoided by not carrying the portage tree?  Last 
I had checked, I believe the tree was roughly in the range of 100mbs or 
so.
I guess I'm curious if I'm missing something, since 100 mb's (if I'm 
correct) while is a space saving, it really isn't all that much in 
comparison to the distfile dir....
