The packages are distributed with FC4 on the installation discs and are
still located in core. I believe the upstream xscreensaver is split in
such a way also. Base, extras and gl-extras.
Since the programs are all compiled at the same time, you would want to
keep them located in the same repostory for maintainng a uniform build.
