I agree.  DocBook markup is just that; it is either correct to mark up a
string representing a package as a package, or it is not.  Whether that
package has a page on some website isn't really relevant.

The CGI script could be fixed to redirect these pages; perhaps someone
with portfu could suggest a patch to the ports infrastructure to create
a file containing all such master/slave combinations that the script
could work with?  I'm thinking something like "make master-slave-list".
