No, you wrote to the address on the MAINTAINER line. But it belongs to a 
mailing list - the port is unmaintained (or as the imaginary marketing 
department would call it, "community supported").

I'm not too sure either, I haven't dealt too much with perl ports and I don't 
really have any dealings with netflow data either. But when I read the 
commitlog and Makefile of p5-Cflow right, it already does check for libft.a's 
existence? The last person to commit to it (including that check) was 
kuriyama@, perhaps you'd want to contact and describe the problem to him.
