 * I meant: it's only usefull for people who want to develop a www application
 * with this particular library.

I know what you meant.  The "www" is the keyword there.

 * autoconf, bcc, bison and so on are not useful for "Joe FreeBSD user" - that's
 * why they are in the "devel" directory...

No, they are there because they are develpment tools and also don't
fit into any other category.  The libwww port is both a development
tool and a www-related package.  And as I said before, when there are
two or more categories that a port belongs to, the "catch-net"
category wins -- like japanese, russian, and www.
