Possibly, I have the space (~18GB free on my /home partition, even more 
free on /). It's just a matter of me taking the time to work on setting 
either one up and I seem to be a perpetual "corner case" when it comes 
to software issues. Either way I have the package locally now (in 
distfiles, I assume) so it's just a matter of doing what's needed to get 
it working.
