These packages are normally uploaded by the bulk build mechanism that
creates them all.  The bulk build puts all the binary packages in /All,
and then creates symlinks in all the other directories.

The symlinks aren't uploaded, which hasn't been a problem in general
because everything (pkg_add, pkg_radd, etc.) looks in the /All dir by
default.  I've been a bit nervous about having all those links uploaded; I
don't know if mirrors will download them as links or treat them as files
and download the actual data all over again.
