Well, that explains that ;)

How odd. Makefiles are the first things to change, perhaps your cvsup
configuration was wrong.

That looks like the CDROM with the 00_TRANS.TBL file there.  Everything
else looks in order.

make sure that:

1.  Tehre's a Makefile on the top level of the port.
2.  pkg contains a PLIST, DESCR, and COMMENT.
3.  perhaps something in patches, ie patch-aa

If not, then re-grab the port from the ftp site.  Remember you can do 'get
xperfmon.tar.gz' from the sysutils directory to get the entire dir.  Then
extract.

I'm not familiar with cvsup files, I just converted some old sup files
when I started pulling the share and www dists.  Those appear to work ok.
