 Regarding http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=94011
 
 I have no way of testing on a 64-bit platform at the moment. However, I would
 like for the port to be marked as unusable on 64-bit even if it can be built
 without docs, given that the problem is in the bundled expat (XML parser) and
 the package being what it is (Python libs for XML processing, heavily
 depending on that bundled parser). It is likely that people attempting to use
 this package on *64 archs will sooner or later run into problems like those
 seen during the documentation build.
