>Environment:
System: FreeBSD g1-37.catwhisker.org 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #779: Fri May 23 06:28:42 PDT 2008  root@g1-37.catwhisker.org:/common/S4/obj/usr/src/sys/CANARY  i386

>Description:
	I use the ap-utils port to configure one of my access points.

	I was thus a bit surprised to see the claim that it "Does not
	work with gcc4.2" and appears to be abandoned.

	So I booted up CURRENT & tried it; it worked.

	g1-37(8.0-C)[34] gcc -v
	Using built-in specs.
	Target: i386-undermydesk-freebsd
	Configured with: FreeBSD/i386 system compiler
	Thread model: posix
	gcc version 4.2.1 20070719  [FreeBSD]
	g1-37(8.0-C)[35]                                                                

	I don't have ready access to other architectures to test, but the
	only arch reported as having an issue on <http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=net-mgmt&portname=ap-utils>;
	was ia64, which I am informed is no longer a concern.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Replace the port, remove the "BROKEN" speciffication, and build it.
	That should demonstrate that the claim of "brokenness" is specious.


	I'm also willing to be the port maintainer.
