On the subject of long filenames:  I had to request repo-copies of about
a dozen files during the 4.6 release cycle because for filenames over
about 100 characters, GNU tar was writing out an archive in a format
that cpio (used by sysinstall) couldn't handle.  I think some of your
patches for openoffice-devel have filenames that are very close to that.

GNU tar in the base system has been updated since that time, so YMMV.
But if you want to do us RE types a favor, tar up your port (starting
from one directory above your ports tree) and try to unpack the result
with cpio.  If you get any filename that resembles @LongLink, your 
filenames are too long.

The qa@ mailing list from late May 2002 has more details.

Bruce.
