Miroslav,

thanks for your required_modules suggestion.  The script dates back to
2005, when required_modules didn't exist (it was merged to a stable
version in August 2007).

I have fixed the openvpn20 and openvpn ports. Revisions 2.2.1_1 and
2.0.9_2 (respectively) have the fix.

Thanks for the report and suggestion!

Best regards,
Matthias
