There is also a patch for Mk/bsd.port.mk

FWIW I've been using the "patch" at 

http://people.freebsd.org/~sjg/ports2bmake.tar.gz

for several months without problem.
I've only built a hundred or so ports, as I don't have a machine up to
building everything.   Which is why an exp-run or similar is needed. 

FWIW I've tested the above on a stock 7.4 release up to current.

I just updated my ports tree and re-applied the above (and
built/installed something from it).

I've updated ports2bmake.tar.gz - a bit more info in the README and more
feedback from the ports2bmake script.

I would appreciate anyone interested giving it a try, and letting me
know if they encounter problems.

Thanks
