I see your message to the ports list:
<URL:http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=658390+661732+/usr/local/www/db/text/2004/freebsd-ports/20041226.freebsd-ports>,
however not only am I am behind in keeping up with the list, but the
message was never delivered to me.

I made it clear in messages to portmgr that several aspects of this patch
went against my wishes as maintainer, yet my messages were ignored.  That
is shabby.
