[racket] Package: What to do about an "examples" subdir -- can it be ignored?

On reflection, 3 seems impossible, since the content of the package is
whatever is in the Git repo. In other words, the .pkgignore that I
want _is_ .gitignore.

Anyway, if anyone has any suggestion whether I should prefer 1 or 2,
please let me know. Thanks.
