What we are trying to say, is that isn't part of the FreeBSD software in 
any way - it is part of the edonkey software.  If you downloaded the 
source, and built it on ANY OS, it would have the same option.  You 
should send your comments to the owners/programmers of edonkey.  Once 
they change their source code, those changes will then be apparant (at 
some point) in the FreeBSD ports collection.
