 Hi Tony,
 
 Can you work with this patch now or is there anything else you need me
 to do, so you can move forward testing this? I did some systematic
 testing in the PR system and as it turns out, it's impossible to upload
 a patch containing UTF-8 characters that will download cleanly. So
 please either use one of the options I provided (base64 etc.) or just
 take the gz I mailed you (you were CCed directly). I could mail the
 patch once more forcing an UTF-8 character set onto it, but this would
 still break the download (so you would have to copy and paste and what
 would be the point in that).
 
 Please see here for reference on the issues found in the PR system:

 It would be good to have this done in a timely manner, since it works
 hand in hand with:
 
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/171643
 
 Again, if there is anything else I could do to make this easier for you
 please let me know.
 
 Thanks,
 Michael
