No need to hide. I haven't tested to apply the patch in a virgin ports
tree (so I didn't knowed about the problem) and portmgr didn't talked
about it, so we either missed to provide the necessary instructions or
the port build cluster will have the same problem...

In either case: to err is human and this is the reason we ask for large
scale testing of the patch.

Bye,
Alexander.
