* From: Kris Kennaway <kris@FreeBSD.org> * This is what NetBSD and OpenBSD have done, but it seems like kind of an * ugly solution to me - it requires extra work when we break * backwards-compatability (must update the REQUIRES_VERSION of every * affected port and commit the changes), and is prone to being forgotten. I * didn't want to mention it because I'd hoped someone would come up with a * better idea. Yes. I especially agree with the last sentence. ;) We need something more automatic.
