This will blow up portsmon. I would not be surprised to see it blow up FreshPorts and Fenner's survey, as well. I doubt it will do any favors to Kris' make-index tinderbox, either, since 'make index' involves a recursive 'make describe'. IMHO, this is a big-time POLA violation. Please attempt to come up with some variation on this solution that doesn't do that. mcl
