Indeed with the header installed under /usr/include/sys the fix to the port would be trivial. I'm all for installing it. I was off looking for a way to accomplish the same thing without the header. The new name and location sound like a good idea too. Probably would be a good idea to get a repo-copy before the deed is done. Kenneth since you have changes you'd like to make will you pursue this or would you like me too?
