The current svn port fixes a lot of known problems (also for HEAD) so I hope we could update the port before the port freeze. But there are still two issues which should be looked at first: - Patch files/patch-include-iprt-stdint.h fixes build on amd64. It works but I think it is not fixed the right way. This patch needs some review. - Some users reported problems updating virtualbox with portmaster (same problem with devel/kBuild). Unfortunately I hadn't time to verify this yet. Beat
