In the same way that many C programs do different things based upon the release date of the OS, could we add a version or release date variable to bsd.port.mk ? This way, we could do tests against that value in a pre-fetch stage, and if the release was too old and we require a newer version, warn the user and break instead of support all these people who simply need a newer copy of the file. Thoughts ? -- j.
