Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't realize that there was a convention for developers'
packages.

But I'm confused too. When you say $PORTNAME-devel, do you mean that this is
the `development' version of the $PORTNAME.

If so, this package is different. This is not a development version of
cons. It actually is a test bed that cons developers can use to do
regression testing of cons whenever they add new features.

Does that make the name valid?
