+This didn't quite come out as I intended.  The "or better still, check 
+at install time" bit was meant to include local mirrors that wouldn't be 
+in the mirror database and which were chosen explicitly in a network or 
+hard-disk install, i. e. if nonfree and tainted are there, allow the 
+user to use them.
+
+I was not advocating dynamic checking of every mirror in the database to 
+see if the database info concerning nonfree and tainted was correct 
+(although that should probably be done before proceeding to use a mirror 
+which the database says has these directories just in case it does not).
