Maybe. Is it a disk space or bandwidth issue.
There is a lot in gcc/snapshots that could be rm'ed to get more space:
* snapshots dating back to November and December 2001
* snapshots dating back to January 2002
* pre-release snapshots for 3.0.3.
* pre-release snapshots for 3.0.4.
Also:
* binutils 2.11 pre-prelease snapshots
* binutils 2.12 pre-prelease snapshots
* glibc snapshots dating back to 2000
* gnats snapshots dating back to 1997,8,9
* xconq snapshots dating back to 1999
* automake snapshots (I think the lettered versions are snapshots)
that would give enough space for say 3 mainline snapshots. Three would
be a better number -- sometimes the snapshots break on a loved platform,
plus the lag time in noticing a new snapshot and in my case, moving the
FreeBSD port to using it.
