Feh.  Dare I ask why this was done as a port, rather than a PR being
submitted that `gperf' in the base system should be up graded?  If we
keep having ports that duplicate much of the GNU tools we have in the
base src tree, why don't we just remove them all from the base tree and
do the package thing.
