In general: just look at the expiration part of the fc4 port (really inside the Makefile) and compare it with all the ports which you want to remove (at least for the ports maintained by emulation@), if it matches you can remove. > Removing textproc/linux-aspell resulted in a broken portsnap build, > which might mean it is still building for 7.X.

It would be nice if the patches results in a nice explanation for the user trying to use some linux stuff on 7.x.
