Thank you Bill, I will follow your recommendations. However as far as I
can understand there is no port for os-bs at all, I just wanted to
update /tools directory as a first step, not the ports tree.

> 2) Create a port for your program.
> 3) Submit a PR based on the guidelines in #1, be sure to note in the
>    PR that this port supersedes the old os-bs port, so the committer
>    can do the right thing.
