Actually, we could just make a mirror user that the scripts could
run as.

Oh, one other suggestions, Chris.  What would you say to instead
of putting the ports in /mirrors/pub/ports, putting it in 
/mirrors/pub/bsd/ports so that people can see it's not something
for linux?  Ideally, we should also put all the linux stuff in
/mirrors/pub/linux (or Linux/) and then the CPAN stuff can also
go at that level (in /mirrors/pub/perl or something like that).
