Please make su= re that ObsoleteFiles does the right thing too :) Oh, and make sure UPDATI= NG is updated. I have some surrounding commits to get done first. I'd like to get some of the existing documentation that refers to CVS removed or modified first. There is some consensus for making MK_CVS default to "no" early, so I'll take that into account and commit that sooner than the above listed conditions. Does this change require a OSVERSION bump? I'm inclined to say yes as the ports infrastructure might need to be aware of the change. --=20 Eitan Adler
