I don't know who released them but holy cow. I have a port that's ready to roll - but I haven't tested it yet. I need to do a bit of testing it on my port testing machine - read the home machine - before I submit it. It might be in as early as tomorrow barring no problems (I still haven't fixed the pkg_add difficulties with parentheses - ie changed those files so they have NO parens). The spaces shouldn't be hosing things - it's the fact that the directories are all hosed. One way to get around this is move the patches to the AfterStep directory (after un-tarballing the source) and use patch -p1.
