Hello ejc!

You are the maintainer of the FreeBSD ORBacus port. Your
port's Makefile has a nasty bug that is frustrating me every time
after I have synchronized my ports tree with cvsup.

The problem lies in the line
  .if ${OSVERSION} >= 4

The use of OSVERSION is wrong here. It causes make(1) to
abort with an error if you ever try to make ANY maketarget on a
2.2.X system. (It bites me everytime when I do a
  cd /usr/ports && make readmes
to update all the README.html files. They are usually out of sync
 - even on a freshly cvsupped ports tree!)
This is expanded by make(1) to
  .if 2.2.8 >= 4
which is illegal makefile syntax.

Please change this line to
  .if ${OSRELEASE} >= 400000

and everything will be fine for FreeBSD x.y.z AND FreeBSD x.y users.

TIA,
  Martin
