The new location is pkg-descr as there was an upper to lower case change as 
well.

As I posted on -ports, they are:

lang/snobol/README.html
security/seahorse/README.html
sysutils/obliterate/README.html

Unless more crept in, they all have Attic entries for README.html

Another problem is fixed with the patch in ports/21952, so that 'make 
readmes' will generate the category HTML files correctly.
