You certianly missed something, including the rationale behind the portmgr@
descision of not committing to the ports tree (!) bsd.port.mk.  Go find
some useful work to do like deleting old ports or whatever.  You might want
to consider deleting all mine ports, as I'm not going to support them anymore
(after you backed out this fix without approval I don't have a working ports
tree anymore on any of my 3 workstations).
