Hmmm.... more importantly, when did this change occur? Is it possibly

Everyone agrees it should go under /var somewhere, and that the
distfiles shouldn't be in the tree,

but no one location was chosen IIRC.

I'm interested in what the DEFAULTS are, ie, for a new/from scratch
installation.
Someone had to decide the defaults - so, what are they? Anyone?
