I presume this was triggered by the recent thread on -ports
encouraging people to take ownership of unloved ports.  Unfortunately,
this (and the other FreeBSD compat ports) are exceptions where the
general rule that "maintainer = ports implies unloved" doesn't hold.

misc/compat3x, misc/compat4x and misc/compat5x should probably all
have maintainers in the src group.  A quick suggestion would be re@
but it's not exactly within their scope.
