Right now I'm using a +IGNOREME with portmaster, but I'm sure this will break stuff in the not so far future. Do I need to temporarily uninstall devel/libusb (it doesn't build now anyway, but maybe upgrading to today's current will fix that) then reinstall it? Any chance some BROKEN vars can be set based on FreeBSD_Version? -- Mel
