I had two options of doing it.  I choose the non-locking one already.
;-)

The patches to the make files for the ports collection I will have to
revise I think as it is possible (and as far as I saw from the source
by now even compatible with older sysinstall versions) to add a new
field to the INDEX w/o too much work.  So if that works I will change
them to merge the INDEX in /usr/ports and my size information with a
little bit of awk code.

That way it is easier to read that information in in sysinstall.  Just
a few new lines of code instead of handling and merging in a whole
file with just the sizes.

Stefan.
