Bugmeister notes:

since it is in Mk/*.mk, yes, it's "Ports Framework".  But really it does not
make as much difference as people assume -- in general, the same people look at
ports PRs in both "Individual Ports" and "Ports Framework".

The choice to only show the former is intentional, due to the high number of
errors when people submit PRs.

My personal opinion is that "Package Infrastructure" should never be shown to
the general public.  It was intended only for "issues affecting the build
machines @FreeBSD.org" and has never really been used for that purpose, instead
only attracting false positives.
