Dear FreeBSD port maintainer:

As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the
FreeBSD ports system, we are attempting to notify maintainers of
ports that are marked as "forbidden" in their Makefiles.  Often,
these ports are so marked due to security concerns, such as known
exploits.

An overview of the port, including errors seen on the build farm, is
included below.

portname:           graphics/ivtools
forbidden because:  http://vuxml.FreeBSD.org/pkg-ivtools.html
build errors:       none.
overview:           http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=ivtools


portname:           misc/compat3x
forbidden because:  FreeBSD-SA-03:05.xdr, FreeBSD-SA-03:08.realpath  - not
                    fixed / no lib available

If this problem is one that you are already aware of, please accept
our apologies and ignore this message.  On the other hand, if you no
longer wish to maintain this port (or ports), please reply with a
message stating that, and accept our thanks for your efforts in the
past.

Thanks for your efforts to help improve FreeBSD.
