No one has been able to give a reliable list of ports that won't work and why. With this commit, no one has the motivation to deal with the issue. Now they have to. As a fallback we switch those ports to use the linux_base-6 port. But the whole problem with the two linux_base* ports we've had is they do not co-exist at all. I have a strong suspicion we will need to add some of the linux_base-6 bits to the linux_base port -- much like we install compat22 and compat4x on a -current box.
