I have to correct myself.  This is not the profile thing.  Though the
check can't hurt I think.

IIRC you need to have the following setup:
PORTDIR=/path/to/live/rsync/tree
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/path/to/kitos/overlay/snapshot

The overlay doesn't have the arch.list files.  We plan on adding them +
others, so the rsync tree won't be necessary any more.
