 That did the trick! Thanks a lot.
 
 But it gets me thinking, why I would use gvfs in the first place when
 it's gnomevfs that gets installed:
 
 From Makefile:
 GNOMEVFS "Use GNOME VFS for the URI plug-in" on
 
 But I don't even know the difference, so I'm probably wrong. But even
 so, wouldn't it be better to use curl instead of gnomevfs or gvfs?
 
 Anyway, I hope you find a way to fix this in ports, one way or another. :)
 
 Cheers,
