So let's stretch "couple" to some two-digit figure. Doesn't really matter -- I can then file one PR with both the bogofilter update and bogofilter-tdb removal after the freeze. The bogofilter update is neither urgent nor important for FreeBSD, so it can wait until after the freeze. (In fact, I have difficulties with ral(4) on RELENG_6 aka -BETA2, LOR and loss of TCP streams in mid flight and such, I think these are more important to clear than dropping a port.) -- Matthias Andree
