I disagree. You guys are going to leave some users with broke libraries or  
apps in their system. No matter if the option is disable by default, you  
have to bump the ports. Also you must remember about that FreeBSD isn't  
only build packages in the world. There are a lot of package builders out  
there with tweaked options.
