Only linux_base-8 and linux_base-fc3 are supported by emulation at . -8 is
the current default linux base and fc3 is the upcomming default linux
base. Every other linux base port (except one) has no active maintainer
and doesn't comply to some "rules" which the linuxolator infrastructure
in the ports collection depends upon. There's also no guarantee by the
FreeBSD project, that any linux port works with a non-standard linux
base port.

Please test with a default linux base port (-8 or -fc3)... I can tell
you that fc3 does not come with "arch" either. Please provide a
rationale why this program should be included (and what this program
does).

Bye,
Alexander.
