I do not think we want separate CVS tree.

What about simply splitting core.patch into core-lite.patch and
core.patch, maybe do the same with i386 patch, and be done with that?
[We do not have enough people for a fork, I think].

Hopefully soon after that *-lite is merged, so it disappears, and
stuff is easy once again.
