Yeah, that was the aforementioned logistical difficulty. I understand BSDi
are going to be setting up a 3.x build machine for the developers to use,
but it hasn't happened yet, and most of the developers have no 3.x
machines to test this on their own.

Ah, I forgot about this (it was a deliberate change since we have the
client in the base and so theres no point in building it in the port as
well). Well, I guess that option is out..I'll update the advisory.
