 Based on feedback I received from Remko, I have updated the diff to fix the=
  indentation after <para>.  I hope it is correct now.  :-)

 +	<para>When building certain ports, you may be presented with a
 +	  ncurses-based menu from which you can select certain build
 +	  options.  It is not uncommon for users to wish to revisit
 +	  this menu to add, remove, or change these options after a
 +	  port has been built.  There are many ways to do this.  One
 +	  option is to go into the directory containing the port and
 +	  type <command>make config</command>, which will simply
 +	  present the menu again with the same options selected.
 +	  Another option is to use the command <command>make
 +	  showconfig</command> which will show you all the
 +	  configuration options for the port.  Yet another option is
 +	  to type <command>make rmconfig</command> which will remove
 +	  all selected options and allow you to start over.  All of
 +	  these options, and others, are explained in great detail in
 +	  in the man page for &man.ports.7;.</para>
