Well, it really wasn't much of a problem. After upgrading to
3.1-RELEASE, I installed a bunch of packages, which included
windowmaker. It didn't work due to a missing shared library, and so I
compiled it myself using the port. It worked fine.
[ However, as I'm behind a firewall, I did manually ftp, to my system,
the two (not one!) *.tar.gz files required by the windowmaker port. ]
