Perhaps a script could be created that would get a listing of the
existing contents of rawhide via ftp, then if any newer packages are
found the old ones are renamed to the new versions and then rsynced.
Dunno if this would work, just speculating.
It 'works', but it actually does not help that much, due to compressed
payloads and other fun.
