>Description:
The "And/or patch file (100KB max):" file upload box in http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html will not allow attaching files which do not resolve to text/* mime types.  This includes .shar and .sh.  Since a sharchive is the recommended format for new port attachments as per http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/porting-submitting.html

>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to attach a .shar or .sh file to a PR via http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html
>Fix:
Do not restrict attachments by mime type.
