Oh, BTW, I run current, and keep myself that way via cvsup. IIRC the patch was made so that when portmanager built a port, the makefile would call back into portmanager to let it modify the dependencies. Portmanager had a major rewrite just before the original author had a row with some FreeBSD people and abandoned the project. AFAIK the feature wasn't yet used, so it doesn't matter if the patch doesn't apply since it's a null operation.
