If you look closely at the port, you'll notice that virtually
no time at all is involved since it's a binary port. Actually
the right thing to do would be having linprocfs as a run-dependency
which is not possible. Now, we get almost all the regression testing
for this port the cluster can provide, which unluckily because of
the above restriction means stopping short of generating a package.
I think we can all live with the new situation.
