4.0-R is closly upon us, and I'll be gathering the Crypto distfiles soon.
It would be a REALLY big help to me if we could add a "CRYPTO" knob to
port's Makefile.  Having to grep for "RESTRICTED" and reading the reason
why is not as easy on me as a standard knob.

Also, with such a knob, a non-USA person could build the crypto packages
and offer them on their FTP site.  This would certainly make SSH, et. al.
easier to install.
