This port sucks in number of ways, which submitter should be informed in:
1) It executes rake directly without PATH specification, which won't work if
   LOCALBASE/bin isn't in PATH.
2) It installs files using CP which is highly discouraged since it doesn't
   set correct permissions on files.

Sorry, if I look a bit aggressive, but this really hurts, and should be fixed.
