I'd love to show you the contents of Makefile, but they're gone!  I checked 
several other applications, but I haven't found a singe Makefile since I 
cvsup'ed back to RELENG_2_2.  I used the ports collection extensively, 
and would love to use it again, once I find out what cvsup did to the 
Makefiles.  I remember watching the GUI while cvsup was running.  It 
updated the ports tree first (most likely because that was the first 
entry in the supfile).  I saw something to the effect of 8000+ files were 
deleted.  Since make world worked, I didn't think too much of it.

Here's 'ls' of the above directory:

bash$ pwd
/usr/ports/sysutils/xperfmon
bash$ ls
00_TRANS.TBL    README.html     files           patches         pkg
bash$

How can I make sure I grabbed all of the ports?
