Would you recommend to set these 2 directories (distfiles, packages) on FAT32
partition?

Sometimes it facilitates swapping those binary files (wich are of time-
consuming downloads/compilations) between computers, especially when they are
multiboot ones and sometimes they run MSwindows ...

Anyways, is there any risk of using FAT32 specifically for these two
directories (assuming all other partitions are ext3)?
