State-Changed-Why: 
It looks like you want to have two separate ports, net/nettest for
the Cray version from 1992 and net/nettest2001 for the new Wind
River version.  I notice that Wind River's supports IPv6.  It wasn't
obvious to me why a user would prefer to run the Cray version.
Could the existing port simply be updated? If there is a reason to
have the two separate ports, this should be stated in the pkg-descr
or pkg-comment file (or both) so users can easily decide which to
use even when installing from packages.

I feel that the benchmarks category would be most suitable for both
these ports, since it is more specific than the net category.  Is
there any objection to that?
