Well, I'm not sure this needs to be spelled out, but, well, people who
decide to build their own ports have to, well, build their own ports.

If they don't want to build their own ports, they should be using the
packages we provide, or at least use the poudriere option that will
fetch the packages instead of building them.

But adding binary packages to the ports tree makes absolutely no sense.
