Neither of these approaches will work with the current ports tree on
anything older than FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE. You'll get syntax errors while
trying to parse the Makefiles used in the ports certainly because of a
change in the way you tell make to map strings to upper or lower case
(eg. ${VAR:L} changed to ${VAR:tl}) and quite possibly for other reasons.=
Nor will the current ports tree work with anything other than pkg(8).
We haven't tried compiling pkg(8) on anything that old -- it might work,
but I sincerely doubt it.
Cheers,
Matthew
