--- Comment #7 from John W. O'Brien <john@saltant.com> ---
That's a relatively recent change [0] and I can find no traffic at all on t=
he
ports list or ports-announce describing it, let alone asking for existing p=
orts
to be changed. What's the benefit of changing? What problem does it solve? =
Is
it a problem with this port that I'm not aware of? Can a larger problem onl=
y be
solved if this port changes?

It seems like it creates needless churn, which frustrates me. Furthermore,
without sufficient reason, nor the coordinated effort required to convert t=
ens
of thousands of ports to the newly preferred style, it also seems likely to
fizzle out and leave the tree in a more inconsistent state than when we
started, which frustrates me more.

I can appreciate your disinclination to revert the change. Nevertheless, it
leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
