Normally yes. However: 1) these are the ports which have been failing for a while on the build cluster, and no one stepped to fix it; 2) miwi@ asked me if I can help to offload the pile of error logs, so I guess I can have an informal blessing from portmgr@ side; 3) I try not to touch/change any user-visible logic of the port; 4) I have several hundreds logs to read, analyze, fix, test (several times on different CPU arches), and commit. I know what I'm doing, I try my best to make sure my fixes are correct, I have time to invest in ports now, and I don't see that being bureaucratic is worth anything -- I emphasize -- in this particular case. That said, for some of these, I nonetheless ask for explicit approval, esp. if maintainer hangs out on IRC. ./danfe
