After building an image with this kit last night, we've obviously got a 
lot of work to do to get the size of the boot archive back down to an 
acceptable level.  Looks like getting 64-bit and 32-bit pulled back 
apart would do perhaps half of it, but poking around a bit, a couple of 
things that caught my eye:

- we really will have to prune usr to a more limited subset; need to 
sort out whether there's a re-factoring of packages to propose or 
whether we want to try to add some file-level tagging in IPS

- DTrace toolkit doesn't need to be in the archive, it's not used until 
after the cd is mounted

- var/sadm in the archive should just be a link to the one on the CD

- the optimizations that are currently commented out at the end of the 
post-process script probably need to be added back in
