Isn't this what the NO_CDROM / NO_BUILD variables are for?
I build an internal distribution CD set with packages we use. Things like
"linux-realplayer" package just fine. The DJBFFT restriction screws up
"portinstall -rRp -m -DBATCH multimedia/okle"

Thanks for clearing up the reason. I still think the "Forbidden - we have 
patches" message is cryptic.

Cheers, Kent
