As a side note, I'm wondering about the use of some ports.  For instance,
I needed the UMD's MaRS router simulator, and of course I wanted to use
it under FBSD.  After patching the source to compile properly, I found I
nearly had a port of it.  So I will finish it up and commit it.

BUT, I feel guilty that maybe the use of the program to the general FBSD
public doesn't warrent the space the distfile and pkg will take up on the
CDROM.  So I am thinking of marking these NO_PKG and NO_CDROM.  The port
will be there for painless building if someone else ever needs it.

Oppinions?  Danerous precidence??
