 Ah, sorry, I checked the PR database a while ago, not just before submitting :(
 
 I think "test" refers to the special "test" program for STARTCOS cards,
 so there is nothing implying that existing support is not stable.
 
 Feel free to merge the requests - maybe you should even take over maintainership,
 as I am not sure Martin is using FreeBSD those days.
 
 You might want to consider including patches I have posted - one
 enables use of limited symbol visibility with our gcc and the second
 one fixes compilation problem with pcsc-lite >= 1.6.2 (not FreeBSD specific,
 will report upstream).
 
 Whatever said, 5.0.1.t works for me like a charm :)
 
 Can anyone update port summary to "Update libchipcard to 5.0.1test" ?
