Approval is only needed if it is a new port or when a version update
is needed. This is just a clean up action. There is a lot which
needs to be cleaned up.

The freeze is, as far as I understand, to get the ports-collection
in shape for the release of 5.0. That means, as far as I get it,
fixing ports which don't build. One of the stages of building is
fetching. If the source of a port can't be fetched from one if its
master_sites, I consider it broken and it needs to be repaired.

I would have prefered if you would have responded on my private
email(*) so that this would have been fixed without this much
fuzz[sp]; there are lots of things to do, for both you and me.

(*) which you did after this email.
