Hi

I couldn't help noticing the curl 7.2.1 information on

	http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=curl&stype=all

... it says it requires "autoconf-2.13, automake-1.4, m4-1.4". It really
doesn't. It only requires those packages if you want to modify the makefiles
or the configure script, which most of the people who download curl have no
intention of doing.

If you *are* going to list what software that's needed to develop the
software, surely autoconf-2.13 and m4-1.4 should be present on almost every
package you have listed in the ports section.

And more, curl 7.3 is out.

Thanks for doing a good job!
