Hey,
	I'm in a toss up between adding DESKTOP_ENTRIES vs lightly patching a=20
=2Edesktop file that comes with a port.. They specify the executable as a=
n=20
absolute path to /usr/bin/ ..

bsd.port.mk says
Rules:
# * Only add desktop entries for applications which do not
#  require a terminal (ie. X applications).
# * If the upstream distribution already installs .desktop
#   files, you do not need to use this.
# * If you require a more elaborate .desktop file than this
#   variable permits, write it yourself and install it
#   in ${DESKTOPDIR}.

but doesn't have a preference for what to do when the distributed icon=20
needs to be modified..

Thanks,
	Dan
