This works, but in the specific case of p5-Apache, I required two things that the patch didn't cover: - The ability to specify a double target ("clean patch") so that I know I'm working off of clean source - Putting it in DEPENDS instead of *_DEPENDS. For now, I kludged it in to cd into ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache and do a make clean patch rather than keep the requestor of the port waiting. Still, as Chuck mentioned, these changes will make life a lot easier for future ports (and some existing ones that do really ugly things right now). Thanks. -- j.
