like i said: i am mostly an openbsd user, so i'd REALLY appreciate it if 
you could become the ports maintainer.
of course, i could always set up a virtual machine, install freebsd in 
there. however, since i wouldn't use it very often, i fear for the 
port's quality.

yes, i saw them.
whenever i added -pendantic.

currently, those warnings are just a nuisance.
but i'll tackle them in the next release.
