 I've taken a look at this, and there seem to be a number of problems
 with the port as it stands..
 
   0.  looks like you missed an EOL at the end of the one line PLIST,
       the sharball fails to extract unless one is manually added in.
 
 
   1.  trying to fetch the port results in:
 
 	fetch: empty reply from www.rendo.dekooi.nl
 
       this can be fixed by adding:
 
 	 FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS=	-b
 
       to the Makefile (or get a proper http server :)
 
 
   2.  the tarball extracts itself as ${WRKDIR}/mp3rename0.4
       (note the missing '-'), requiring:
 
 	WRKSRC=	${WRKDIR}/mp3rename0.4
 
       to be added to the Makefile (or the tarball to be fixed,
       since you control it).
 
 
   3.  The actual Makefile in ${WRKSRC} overrides CC, CFLAGS, INSTALL,
       doesn't use ${PREFIX} for installation, nor is the binary
       stripped.
 
 
   4.  A manpage would be nice, but failing that, installing the
       README into ${PREFIX}/share/doc/mp3rename/... (with appropriate
       caveats if NOPORTDOCS is defined)
 
 
 All these issues are covered in the Porting section of the handbook,
 which you can find at:
 
 	http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/porting.html
 
 or /usr/share/doc/handbook/porting.html if you have the doc set
 installed on your machine.
 
 If you can fix all of these (about 10 minutes work), and resubmit,
 then I'm sure it'll get committed.
