I may be just getting very confused or my mirror might be broken
but...

But in my mirror I see:

307/*/errata/
      SL/
      bugfix/
      bugfix-308/
      fastbugs/

bugfix-308/ is empty of rpms (as I'd expect), but bugfix/ seems to
contain a large number of rpms (and not the same as was in 305/.../
which means it wasn't just copied over from that tree, but it does
seem to contain packages which are superceded by ones in the main SL
tree.  e.g.

$ find  307/i386/ -name 'util-linux*.rpm' 
307/i386/SL/RPMS/util-linux-2.11y-31.11.i386.rpm
307/i386/errata/bugfix/RPMS/util-linux-2.11y-31.10.i386.rpm

so I'm not sure what these represent (fixes which were new in some
previous version?)

In the 43/ tree bugfix is a symlink to the bugfix-44/ directory.

fastbugs/ contains updates which arn't elsewhere (e.g. stuff like
rdist-6.1.5-35.30.3) but has an 's' on the end over what was in
the release-notes (and is different from what is in the 43/
tree).  Is there a reason for this?

I really don't mind what the names are but if this is likely to
change I'd prefer it to happen before I add fastbugs/ to too many
scripts and config files...
