No. That ship sailed in 1995.
Besides, it would be the mother of all bikesheds. Do we want to have
a sys/cpu/{mips,x86,arm,etc} for CPU support and a sys/arch/$MACHINE
for support for machines that use that, how does that interact with
source doe that assumes certain things in machine/foo.h. Or do we
want to have better organized sub-ports. Do we want to reorg config
while we're at it, and what about modules. And sys/dev is too
crowded, let's fix that too while we're at it.
The end result: gridlock and nothing will happen.
