Wow!  I was quite a bit surprised with this one:

	www/kgb: ports/9984 - PDL - Perl Data Language

, which is really math/PDL.  8-O

I would guess that the heuristics extracted www/kgb from url in
description.  Nothing else was found apparently because the report is
a compressed tar shar.  :-)

Probably that's why no commiter has approached this port yet...
