Some of the tools are. The syscons changes are the scrshot tool are, but I would expect to keep shot2{png,gif,txt} in the ports tree, at least for the time being. If for no other reason than that shot2{gif,png} will depend on libgd or libpng, or similar. shot2{png,gif,txt} will just become additional dependencies in the docproj/ meta-port.
