That archive is made from the tag every few days.
It saves a ton of time to ftp the pkgsrc bz2 
then extract and do a cvs update on a new machine,
verses doing an initial cvs checkout of the tag.

I was hoping netbsd src tags would be available as
archive, to accelerate a new checkout. maybe it
would reduce load and bandwidth of the netbsd cvs
servers too?
