>Description:
Update COMMENT and pkg-descr for converters/unix2dos. This makes both the comment and description more meaningful. No package contents were changed; I don't think this justifies a PORTREVISION bump.

While here, trim Makefile header.

I experienced some difficulty running `make fetch`, but it may just be my Internet connection (Portscout says it's okay). Committer should try running `make fetch` to be sure.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install the port.
>Fix:
Apply the attached patch.
