patch

I've been working on my own update to this port for sometime, where
    the stumbling block has been trying to locate a tool to decode
    AMD microcode files.

    So, I'm happy to see that this port got updated and includes a tool
    that handles both Intel and AMD microcode files.

    However, I was disappointed that the microcode files don't appear to
    be any newer than before.  Namely I had been trying to update the port
    to microcode-20130906.  I actually don't currently have any amd
    processors, but wanted to incorporate the latest (amd-ucode-latest.tar.bz2)
    for completeness.  On Debian, the files are the same as source for
    amd64-microcode-2.20131007.1+really20130710.1, and the files have a
    datestamp of 20130907.  While all the files on amd64.org have a date
    stamp of 20130927 and the files are dated 20130925.

    The amd-ucode-2012-09-10.tar file extracts to reveal that its a
    duplicate of amd-ucode-2012-01-17.

    In checking Intel site, found that latest microcode file is 20140430.

    Wonder what the newer revision for my CPU brings?

Fix:
Update port to use 'microcode-20140430.tgz' and
    'amd-ucode-latest.tar.bz2'.
