missing NetBSD 8 packages on ftp.netbsd.org

[Eric Hawicz]

I noticed that a whole ton of packages are missing from 
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/8.0/All/. 
Basically, everything alphabetically after "gimp-docs" is gone, even 
pkgin is missing.

Does anyone know what happened?  It makes installing packages on/during 
a fresh NetBSD 8 install rather difficult.
