>Description:
If I understand the situation correctly, editors/nxml builds nothing by itself and editors/nxml-emacs21 needs all the files from editors/nxml to build its package.

It appears at one time editors/nxml built different versions of emacs, but now it only builds emacs21.  If this is true, then currently two ports are being used to build a single package.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
I propose that editors/nxml-emacs21 be removed, and editors/nxml be altered to define EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs21.

Then one still gets a nxml-emacs21 package put it only took one port to do it.
