I want to attract attention to the fact that for several months ftp.freebsd.org had the broken variant which crashes under 6.2 though building from port under my 6.2 gives working package. The mathopd port hasn't depencencies at all, one binary. How the broken variant was compiled? If someone wants to investigate, I uploaded the broken November 4 package at http://lena.kiev.ua/broken-mathopd-1.5p6.tbz
