Good question.

You can report it to the maintainer, who'll probably shrug and point
out that he doesn't have an alpha.  You can submit a PR, which will
probably be ignored since nobody feels responsible.  You can report
the problem on freebsd-ports, where it will be lost under the deluge
of new ports and update submissions.  You can send it to this list,
where people will probably consider it off topic, since it's a ports
problem.

I think we have a problem here.
