According to what I could determine while looking at various meta-issues
this weekend, linux_base-6 is only used by devel/linux_devtools-6 and
(conditionally) by graphics/linux_mesa3.  In fact, there only seem to
remain a handful of ports that state a dependency on linux_base-7.

I would encourage people to consider upgrading to linux_base-8 now
that the ports tree has been switched over to use it as a default.
