That reminds me.

Maybe the pbulk or whatever you are using allows you to set your distfiles 
to be NFS mounted /archive/distfiles.

DISTDIR?=               /archive/distfiles

(Feel free to make a pkgsrc distfiles group or something for that. I don't 
care if you change the directory or file ownerships.)

My only concern was having duplicate downloads of thousands of distfiles.

Also to use other locations (to read but not write):

DIST_PATH=/build/pbulk_chroot/distfiles:/build/pbulk_chroot_head/distfiles

You can read about that with:

	bmake help topic=distdir
