>Description:
Sometimes I'm not completely happy with a single specific aspect of a port,
while i still like the rest of it.
Thus I often have to do the
make extract
cd work/portname
vi file (modify somthing)
cd ../..
make install
cycle to install a port.
I've started to collect these modifications in patch-format on my systems
in /pub/patches.
To make it even easier, I modified bsd.port.mk (patch below).
If you set 'USERPATCHES' in /etc/make.conf it will look into that directory
for patches with the name $PORTNAME.* and apply them.
This makes installing ports on a new system so much easier and faster, so I
hope this modification could find its way back into FreeBSD.

Possibly also add this to /etc/defaults/make.conf:
# USERPATCHES controls where individual patches for ports are searched.
# If this is set, it looks for patches of the form
# $USERPATCHES/$PORTNAME.*

#USERPATCHES=/pub/patches
