Yes, I tried to prevent that to no avail.  The reasons mentioned are
completely nonsensical. "rtems" in names of those ports means ABI
they provide (which is very close to bare metal) and not the actual OS,
but the ports are being removed because someone was unable to build RTEMS
on PCBSD.

Oh well.

Anyway, if you need any help with cross-XXX, let me know.
