I would tend to agree.

90% or more of all FreeBSD systems will not run either of these routing
daemons, so their rightful place is in ports.

Also, considering the general hazzleness of src/contrib I think ports
offer a far more flexible infrastructure for dealing with the software
(such as openospfd-stable vs openospfd-cvs versions etc.)

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
