The entire etoile is being ripped out for a reason of "API no longer 
supported"... Could the powers that be elaborate, what this means, 
please? Which API?

The version in ports is 0.4.1. Visiting the project's web-site 
(http://www.etoile-project.org/) shows version 0.4.2 available since 
April. Thanks!
