uudecode(1) is your friend here.

> 3) Even if you got it running, it doesn't change that 3.4.2 has been out
for ages or the fact that 4.0.0 is in development or the fact that the last
time this discussion was had someone volunteered to take over
maintainer-ship and upgrade the version in ports. I don't know when you
installed gramps on your machine, but I have not been able to get it to
work (for various definitions of work) on mine since I've been using
FreeBSD (admittedly a few short months). Right now I can launch (I modified
the make file to pull and build 3.4.2) it but the import function causes it
to lock up and stop responding (could just be a python issue, I have a
similar issue with gpodder). So you having 3.3.x working on your machine
means absolutely nothing to me.

I think the best course of action is to give the maintainer some time to
respond.
