I personally didn't investigate this issue yet. All the new packages are uploaded to allpkgs and then hardlinked, so the "one physical copy of each file" rule should hold for anything new. But I didn't write any checks to verify this is actually the case. Would you be willing to develop / provide some sort of diagnostic and/or fixing tool for the catalog?
