Oh please Mathieu, not this "read PHB, no thinking required" bullcrap
again.  Apparently you don't realize how much of PITA these bumps for
no real reason can be.  Port revision should be bumped if there was
something *wrong* with the previous package, or rebuild is *really*
necessary due to breaking change in its dependencies.

Perhaps frequent rebuilds is not a problem for binary package users or
multicore machines with shitloads of RAM and fast storage, but 1) if I
wanted to use binary packages, I guess Debian would be a better choice
as they've got it well before we did, and 2) I don't have, and hardly
ever will have that high-profile hardware.
