I'd really like to see: -pre-install: +pre-su-install: committed right away.

I'd really like to hold off on the rest of this patch until /usr/ports is totally unfrozen and we can do some ARCH clean ups that is needed. Then we can have a good base to investigate issues from. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
