The ports Makefile says: the maintainers email address is
freebsd-emulation at FreeBSD.org. Big problem here, that's not a real
person. But how can a script know this?

If I assign it to portmgr for a repocopy, I'll get the PR back in
my lap when the repocopy is done, not netchild at . In the mean time
(and sorry for the noise), netchild is old and wise enough to know
how to assign this PR back to himself :-)
