>Description:
The avifile pkg-message says that:
"This port requires a kernel built with
the directive:
options USER_LDT"
This is not entirely true since USER_LDT is now part of the FreeBSD-5.x kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install the avifile port.
>Fix:
Add a note in the pkg-message saying that "options USER_LDT" is only needed for user of FreeBSD < 5.x
