 Hmmm - it would be nice to always have only one version of any given S/W
 product, but in many cases, multiple versions are required because other S/W
 products force a particular version to exist. It would be nice if ALL S/W
 products could accept newer pre-/co-requisite S/W, but that simply isn't the
 case. Perl and tcl/tk are famous for this, but this also happens with PORTS
 accepting one and only one version of a given piece of S/W. The multiple
 versions of librep may have been entirely my fault, however.
 
 At any rate, I now have the latest sawfish (2-1.2_1,2) installed by making a
 link from gdbm.2 to gdbm.3, so the PR can be closed.
