Most important is that you recognize there is a problem with
how +CONTENTS files are generated.  

If no one is interested in writing an alternative to  "${MAKE} 
package-depends" then I've demonstrated how portmanager
may be used as an alternative.

Wether or not you all choose to make portmanager as a part
of the base system is up to you all,  I really just wanted to let
you know that when portmanager is installed in a user system
I'd like it to make the adjustment to bsd.ports.mk.  If portmanager
is removed I'll make sure it smoothly returns bsd.ports.mk
to a usefull state as part of the deinstall process.
