I really hate having several versions of small utilities in ports.  I
just confuses users.  IMHO, it is only OK, if the package is a well known
program with real differences between versions that will cause people to
have a preference to stick with the older version.  I killed mkhybrid12
for this reason.

That said, why not just updated the mkisofs port??  It has no maintainer.
I also note that mkisofs112 has no maintainer and thus will rot.

I propose that either (1) you become offical maintainer of mkisofs112 and
track its versions, or (2) trash mkisofs112 and update mkisofs.

mkhybrid has this, so what does mkisofs112 add?
