You can probably share all of them, but just realize the distfiles for x86
won't be usable for amd64 and vice-versa (unless you're going to use an x86
distfile on the amd64 because there isn't an amd64 version available).  But
let me ask you this:  are you really that strapped for space to have to
share these directories?
