I'm sorry that I have not responded to you earlier.  I have been busy
doing some ports work.

Please see the posting from Peter Schuller <peter.schuller@infidyne.com> to
freebsd-current@freebsd.org: 200801111935.50821.peter.schuller@infidyne.com
(Subject: Improving the handling of PR:s.)  He makes some excellent
observations and suggestions.  I've gone ahead and replied to that posting
with some of my current thinking, both to current@ and bugbusters@.
