  Whoops, I should have looked for that; I now see ports/52766.
  
  Would you (or anyone) like to have a stab at re-rolling/submitting your patch
  without the gtar dependancy?  Otherwise I'll take a look at it when I have
  some time later.

  Other PDF viewers exist though.  I personally prefer gv or xpdf to
  Acrobat, which is why I'd prefer that Acrobat be removed as a
  RUN_DEPEND.
  
  Thanks for the port!  Saved me lots of fiddling to get fpc installed.
