From my portmgr perspective, diizzy@ has no more, or less, expertise or
authority than you. He merely offered an off-hand opinion, which you’re
free to consider or disregard as you see fit; in this case, it clearly
doesn’t add much. His comment was simply a drive-by reaction to
something he found inelegant.

In any event, since upstream doesn’t supply distfiles with the necessary
fixes, your solution was perfectly reasonable, and the best part is that
it already exists and works.
