>Description:
In net/sixxs-heartbeatd the MASTER_SITES link is 404'ing since the
13th of January.  On closer inspection the sixxs.net website states;

"The former 'heartbeat' clients are no more available, please download
the AICCU <http://www.sixxs.net/tools/aiccu/> client which can do more
and in a better way."

So, is it time to mark it as obsolete and pull it from ports?

>How-To-Repeat:
Build port using # make install clean

>Fix:
Obsolete/remove port.  Use net/sixxs-aiccu instead.
