Those ports have been added since I initially did a 'cvs co' of the
ports tree. I would have expected CVS to have added them to
'CVS/Entries' when it first added those directories in a 'cvs up'. I
am not sure why it didn't. Oh, well. I'll just do some surgery the
'Entries' and be done with it. Thanks for the response.
