Nothing that will provide enough space on ftp-master.  There is also
the thought that at this point we're not encouraging new installs so
the FTP install tree going away isn't a big deal (though the ISO
images will not be going away) and the packages-7.4-release tree is so
stale people actually need to either build their own packages or use
packages-7-stable instead.
