One possibility for this problem, and Bill can correct me if I'm
wrong, but I think swish-e's index files are platform
independent. So, if the mirror has swish-e, and if the indexing
on the master is done without absolute links, it should be
possible for mirrors to install a local copy of the search and
use the index files generated at the master site (available
through rsync, or whatever).
