While most of the Kato's work are of rather high quality and quite accurate
with the details down to licensing issues, this particular change:

>  do-install:
> -	${INSTALL_PROGRAM} ${WRKSRC}/unalz ${PREFIX}/bin
> +	(cd ${WRKSRC} && ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} ${PORTNAME} ${PREFIX}/bin)

is gratuitous and should not have been committed.  I think I've previously
raise this concern with Kato's submissions before.  Not just it does not win
us anything here, it makes install(1) statement context-dependent and also
reduces readability thereof at the same time.

No matter how good is Kato (whoever they are), we should not handle their
patches blindly.
