As a  rule, I CC  port maintainers (and  the last committer  chaning the
port's Makefile) when I submit a PR regarding a port.

In this  case, I not  only did that, but  also keep bothering  this fine
people, without any  response, regretfully. My last  such bothering took
place less then a week ago, when I wrote to the Eddie mailing list:

	http://www.eddieware.org/mail/talk/0404.html

Both seb@bluetail.com and ruslan@shevchenko.kiev.ua did not reply :(

Perhaps we (Jimmy  Olgeni and yours truly) should merge  our patches and
resubmit, but it  would be nice to  see a confirmation, that  it will be
looked at before we spend any more effort...
