Hi

bug report is that security/mcrypt has a patch files that fails, the
only patch file there is unnecessary and should be deleted.

While looking, I found two other issues that might need to be
addressed...

1) this port has some nasty unnecessary configuration stuff that forces
   extra dependancies and work, I think those should be removed. I'm
   willing to do that, but don't want to step on toes if the maintainer
   is active...

2) reponsibility in the pr (dated mar06) and bugmaster is "freebsd-ports",
   but the port has a listed maintainer. Is this a bug in gnats? Or is
   the makefile outdated and not reflecting something gnats knows?
