Since you fetch the program from one of those locations and the
dictionaries from the other one, you should split this into
MASTER_SITES and MASTER_SITES0.  Or do you expect files to move
around between the two paths?

I would assume that the dictionaries are maintained independently
of the server daemon.  Putting them all into one big package doesn't
make much sense then.  How about using MULTI_PACKAGES to split this
up?  Dictionaries could then be installed/updated individually.
(Yes, we'll have to think about dictd.conf.)
