No, keep this. I'm responsible for the mega patch and I've been working 
with kris on this. I've discussed with seanc about bumping the -devel to 
-release. For now the -devel port is better than no 8.0 port at all. The 
postgresql80 port is marked as broken, work in progress, with a pointer to 
the -devel port. It will not be unbroken until the mega patch is be 
committed.
