New Revision: 349228
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/349228

Log:
  The variable names in the description of the port number usage is
  inconsistent. This patch fixes that and improves the precision of
  the description.
  Thanks to Tom Marcoen for reporting the issue and providing an
  initial patch, on which this change is based.
