The first problem is solveable by storing tarballs on freefall and
using that as MASTER_SITE.  The second (assuming the changes are
mostly to the code and not to the build infrastructure) is a non-
problem; if you keep me informed whenever a new tarball is out, I'll
keep the port up-to-date.

Do you have a port skeleton for apr?
