Per quoted above, it should not be added. Contrary to GNU versions of sed
and awk, if base ed(1) can be used as drop-in replacement, over-populating
ports collection just because someone wanted to remain their work in the
history does not warrant it. I believe the best would be to follow up with
maintainer and either 1) find out and explain in pkg-descr what this port
can do that base ed(1) cannot; or 2) cvs rm it.
