	Don't know about the port. But since Windowmaker people make a new
release more often then Linus can make new kernels, I'd assume it would be
hard to maintain such port.
	But here is the good news: latest version compile just fine out of
the box on 2.2.7:

% wmaker -version
WindowMaker 0.18.0
% uname -a
FreeBSD 0wn.jkb.org 2.2.7-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE #0: Mon Aug 17
17:38:12 GMT 1998     root@0wn.jkb.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/0WN  i386

	If you have any compile problems let me know.
