BE aware, though, that 'send-pr' is already included with the FreeBSD distribution for reporting bugs back to the development team. I renamed mine to send-pr-fbsd to avoid the conflict. Just make sure you're calling the right one when you're testing. I made the mistake of not renaming send-pr first :-) Also, the makedist (?) facility for making send-pr packages wasn't working the greatest last time I checked. I think it barfs looking for some readme file. :( But you can ftp the necessary files around and install them manually with little trouble.
