I'm still updating ports -- libxul & firefox, particularly -- on my
laptop after updating /usr/ports to r327610, so I haven't yet had a
chance to actually test this, but it *looks* to me as if:

diff -ru /usr/ports/astro/gpsman/Makefile gpsman/Makefile

 WRKSRC=                ${WRKDIR}/${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}

g1-227(9.2-P)[3] 


is what's wanted (for astro/gpsman).

Am I close?  :-}

Peace,
