I've now gone through any number of different install strategies and
can't find a method that consistently allows me to get needed ports
installed. I finally, after trying off-and-on for three days, have X
working, but many of the applications I use everyday (e.g., anything
GTK/GNOME related) won't install. Mostly, I get streams of stuff like
this:

http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/dbhierx.mod:115: parser
warning : PEReference: %list.class; not found
                %local.divcomponent.mix;">
                                         ^
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/dbhierx.mod:115: parser
warning : PEReference: %admon.class; not found
                %local.divcomponent.mix;">
                                         ^
And assorted other parse errors.

Should I be submitting a PR for this?
