Sorry, nay for me. 2.1GB * 8 arches will be just under 17GB in snapshots when it goes through all the arches, plus the same again for each OpenBSD release containing it. This is quite a lot of bandwidth/disk space on the mirrors, and build time on the slower machines of the ports build network, and at that size I don't think it's really useful enough to have in packages (especially when you can just git clone it). Of course I noticed this by running out of disk space on a machine where I was attempting to mirror packages.
