portaudit_fixed is only for OS bugs (i.e. associated with
kern.osreldate).  portaudit is just a shell script; if it bothers you
that much, submit a patch to make it work for port problems too, or
send-pr :)

Looks like a case of moving the "if (fixedre && $2 ~ fixedre) next" line
outside the "$1 ~ /^FreeBSD[<=>!]/ {" section around line 140, or
something to that effect.
