I'm struggling with an issue in trying to compile ports.  The specific one
is the imap-uw port, but it's a more general question.  I need to be able
to download and expand the distribution file, then to perform some source
code modifications, and then compile and install the port.

It seems that whichever sequence of make targets I try, I end up either
wiping out the existing source code and re-expanding the distribution
(which wipes out my edits); or simply reinstalling the already-compiled
binaries without recompiling (which ignores my edits).

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I can't figure it out.
Help?
