Bikeshed alert. Let's not let this discussion go sideways.
Seriously, it's not the same. To import something different doesn't replace
what was removed. We have two options. Put it back, or something like it,
e.g. OpenRCS, back, or put it in ports. Personally I don't think it matters
where it lives as long as the same functionality is there.
