This command is a replacement for the INSTALL_PROGRAM command for kernel loadable modules. The reason for this split is that on AMD64 platforms the module will break if it gets strip(1)ped. The hack around this was to set STRIP="" in the ports Makefile (or to use INSTALL_DATA/INSTALL_SCRIPT), but that of course can have other consequences in the future. By defining a special command for it we will be sure this will keep working in the future. Or at least make it easily modifiable. The ports which I have updated are: audio/oss comms/hcfmdm comms/ixj comms/ltmdm emulators/snespp emulators/vmware-guestd4 emulators/vmware-guestd5 emulators/vmware-guestd6 graphics/kix-kmod graphics/plasma-kmod japanese/msdosfs korean/msdosfs multimedia/pvr250 multimedia/pvrxxx net/ipw-firmware net/ng_daphne net/nvnet palm/uppc-kmod sysutils/ipmi-kmod They have their PORTREVISION increased (where possible).
