I wrote up docs for marcus when he was learning how to do package
builds.  I think he is updating them into a form suitable for adding
to the doc tree.

The packages are built on the build machines with the symlinks (via
e.g. 'make package-links') and then added to the master set on bento.
AT the end of the run I remove packages that should not be kept
(RESTRICTED/NO_CDROM, etc), chop down the INDEX, make the CHECKSUM.MD5
and some other post-processing, and copy the entire subdirectory to
the ftp site if desired.
