 Oh, sorry, I forgot to commit it.  Fixed just now.

 The reason why these ports were deprecated by the author because
 these tools are solely for IPv6 conformance validation and a package
 with local patches by the FreeBSD project could conflict with the
 official version as well as be an obstacle for the verification
 process.

 The IPv6 conformance verification project concluded at the end of
 2012, 9 months after the removal, so this should not matter anymore.
 Since these tools are BSD-licensed from the beginning, there is no
 legal dispute about the redistribution in a package.
