>Description:
When installing webglimpse from the ports tree, at some point it creates
the /usr/local/www/webglimpse/.wgsiteconf file.  There is a file in
files/ but it does not use this.  The generated .wgsiteconf contains
quotes around the cgi-bin directory ("/usr/local/www/cgi-bin") which the
wginstall.pl script interprets literally (looks for a directory " in the 
cwd...).  I tried figuring out where it is generating the wgsiteconf but had
no luck.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/www/webglimpse
make install
...
ERROR - Aborting install. Cannot create directory "/usr/local/www/cgi-bin/"

>Fix:

Simple fix: insert a s/\"//g right before it tries to create the directory.
Right fix: find out why and where it puts the quotes in in the first place...
