No, that's not what I meant. I meant just the libraries contained in
the sunsoft locker. For instance, we could move all the *.so* files
from ~sunsoft_v5.1/arch/sun4x_56/lib into a subdirectory; that might
be sufficient.

In the long term, we might not even be using AFS. In ths short term,
it's more of an issue if someone replicates lockers somewhere else.
