Actually, this could be the most automated way of doing this, because you
could have a target like
${FILESDIR}/bsd_port_mk_version_required: Makefile
@echo ${BSD_PORT_MK_VERSION} > ${FILESDIR}/bsd_port_mk_version_required
so that any time the port Makefile gets updated, the version-required file
also gets updated. This will end up creating version-required files with
higher versions than needed since, for example, they might get updated if
you just changed MASTER_SITES, but creating them automatically like this
takes a lot of the load off of porters.
