Our cim port is outdated; it installs cim 2.10 whereas the latest
production version is 3.29. I have an updated port waiting to be
committed, but there's one thing I don't understand: the current cim
port is marked broken for Elf ("bad library version number") even
though it builds, installs and works perfectly (as far as I've been
able to test it) when the BROKEN_ELF line is removed.

Why is it a bad thing to install libraries with more than a
single-digit version number? Every other operating system I know of
supports this (although I'm not sure how the minor version number is
interpreted or if it is ignored).
