Sorry about the reply, rather than reply-all, Giorgos. Thank you for your help on this. So, my next question is, how does one know that the wonderful and brilliant FreeBSD port squad already took care of things like this? I assume that it is documented somewhere, but I didn't see it on the description page for the port. Am I just going to have to ask more stupid questions like this, until I get a better feel for things?
