>Description:
I was trying to build net-im/cjc, which requires security/py-m2crypto and
ran into a problem where a symbol found in the py-m2crypto/ASN1.py file wasn't
being found by cjc. Upon further investigation, it turns out that the line in
the ppy-m2crypto/_m2crypto.i file that includes _asn1.i had been commented out in
the patch found in py-m2crypto/files/patch::_m2crypto.i.  I removed this
file and all is well now with both m2crypto and net-im/cjc.  There
is no comment as to why this line is commented out and I'm thinking
it shouldn't be. 
>How-To-Repeat:
# cd /usr/ports/net-im/cjc
# make all && make install
# cjc

>Fix:
remove the /usr/ports/security/py-m2crypto/files/patch-SWIG::_m2crypto.i file and rebuild the py-m2crypto port.  Now cjc will run.
