The README.html files are placed in the tree when you install the
ports collection as part of an initial sysinstall system installation.
From there on they are entirely static *unless* you explicitly
update them with "make readmes". In particular, they aren't touched
by cvsup.
In case you're wondering why I don't have any: the README.html
files are profoundly useless for me, so I deleted them after
installation and never run "make readmes".
