I am the maintainer of strace and I came in late on this thread. The port was updated last on December 30, and AFAIK 4.5.7 works on supported platforms. I may be some naive Canadian kid, however, the last time I checked, accepted practises what they are, if you have an issue/problem/concern with a port, you follow up with the port maintainer first. Unfortunately, I only found out about this issue via a pop-up in IRC, informing me there was something brewing in -current, and I should check it out. I have read John Baldwin's email about patches he has, and now that I know, I will investigate. Anyway, I will step out of the pulpit now.
