True, but this shall indicate to any *potential* C++ users that something about the port has changed, and they might even take a peek at the logs to see exactly what changed. There are those like me who run cvsup with -L 2, and then read the output; and then there are those who don't :) It's for their benefit that PORTREVISION exists - so that pkg_version can tell them that something important changed, and they should spend some time wondering exactly what it was :) G'luck, Peter -- Thit sentence is not self-referential because "thit" is not a word.
