First off, let me say thank you for maintaining this port and being so
quick to respond to requests.

I did not receive a bounce.  I checked my mailq and saw that after 10
minutes that there was a delay, so I went this route.

Nope.  Just docbook2X-0.8.8_2.

I just finished updating my ports tree, both from
cvsup1.us.freebsd.org and from cvsup15.us.freebsd.org (the fastest
from a fastest_cvsup output), but the security/logcheck port didn't
update.  How long should I wait to see in in the ports tree, or is
there a non-normal location to pull the ports from?

Thanks!
