Which build (date) of the smartmontools-5.38 port are you using?

When the port was initially upgraded to 5.38, the CISS support patch
(for 5.37 and below) was left in.  It later turned out that the CISS
support patch was not needed at all, because 5.38 incorporates support
for CISS natively, thus was removed.
