In the commit message you stated that the port should only be for
a limited time. Why not keep it in the collection until it is not
fetchable anymore from the distribution sites? After all, there are
a couple of ports which face a similair situation: there are five
different versions of the TCL port, three different openldap versions,
four different pike versions etc. It doesn't cost anything extra
(except some CPU time on bento and a handfull of megabytes on disk).

Anyway, you don't have to answer (I just needed to get it out of
my system) and I'm glad that the port is in. I still haven't looked
enough at 7.3 to take the step.
