I committed it. Thanks! I guess I'll see it after the 4am update! * One question: does any of the documentation reflect * freebsd-current as opposed to 2.0.5? If so, those sections need * to be clearly as such with instructions on how to get the * necessary parts of -current (I suspect that bsd.port.mk is the * only thing in most cases). The only thing I can think of is the new argument (-m) to ldconfig, but I'm not sure if you can just grab ldconfig and rebuild it and be happy, as much of ld has changed. The section is clearly marked, and it won't really stop people from doing ports, it's just an extra line in the post-install target that can produce an error message in previous versions. Also, it is only relevant when the port installs a shared library, so most people aren't affected. Satoshi
