https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D229925 --- Comment #7 from Kyle Evans <kevans@freebsd.org> --- (In reply to Antoine Brodin from comment #6) Right, and it turns out escaping its use in the :C modifier is not necessar= y, e.g. [1] removes the gratuitous escaping from these USES bits that caused t= hat particular breakage, and in theory works. I'm doing some grep-work to see if I can pare down the amount of :C usage t= hat I need to whisk through to figure out what all breaks in the ports framewor= k, because it doesn't look as rampant as I had thought from some initial pokes. Given that I don't quite have the resources to build the entire ports tree,= do you happen to have a smaller set of ports that you would recommend trying to build on my own as a basic lemon test before asking you to try again? Perha= ps a small set that flexes quite a bit of ports functionality.
