I thought so, too, when I took a look at the port for the first time,
but at this time that wasn't the case, because some more above he cp's
PLIST.common to PLIST, which makes a _fresh_ copy of PLIST.

Nice. I have used dynamic PLIST's in some ports too and will soon
switch then, I think ;-)
It seems I have not seen this section in the porting.{sg,ht}ml when I
checked the last time.
