System: FreeBSD zeus.bayofrum.net 8.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #1: Sun Feb 27 22:19:51 UTC 2011 root@zeus.bayofrum.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ZEUS i386
>Description:
Under the automated pkg-plist section, the quoted commands use command
substitution syntax $(), which is great if you're using sh etc, but
not if you're using csh -- the default root shell.
>How-To-Repeat:
Copy-paste the commands suggested to generate the pkg-plist in the
Porter's Handbook into t?csh.
>Fix:
	- in pkg-plist generation:
		* replace $()-style substitution with `` for csh users
