OK.  Here's the deal.

I would prefer to work _with_ you to fix problems in the Ports
Collection.  I will happily admit that I cannot do it all by my own.
I welcome any and all help.

But what I am *trying* to chainsaw through hundreds of errorlogs.
There is a 100% chance I will miss something.

If this is the attitude you wish to have, I will create PRs for each
and every problem and assign them to _you_ directly and then you may
do as you wish.

My goal is to get aarch64/armv7 up to snuff with amd64 ASAP: preferably
by the end of the year.  Where possible, I will fill in the bits for
powerpc64 and sparc64, which I run here at the house (as well as armv7
runs, and armv6 exp-runs).

But if you think it's so important to have no regressions on i386 --
an obsolete architecture -- for ports that are in dusty corners of
the ports collection -- in preference to trying to attract attention
enough to get them fixed on aarch64/armv7, then please take it to
portmgr.

Or fix them yourself.

I am tired of this.
