The port was marked as RESTRICTED on Tue Mar 15 04:35:01 2005 UTC
because the GLIB library is on GPL License but the port was not
configured to distribute the sources. See comments to cvs commit for
the port's Makefile (revision 1.8):
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/devel/linux-glib2/Makefile

And from bsd.ports.mk:
-----
# RESTRICTED    - Prevent the distribution of distfiles and packages to        
#                                 the FTP sites or on CDROM (e.g. forbidden by >
#                                 considerations).                             
-----

After 6.1 was released an updated bsd.linux-rpm.mk along with new 
devel/linux-glib2 revision was introduced. Those restrictions no
longer exists -- sources of GLIB are auto-fetched while building the
port. Hence future releases will have the package. But not 6.0-RELEASE
and 6.1-RELEASE, sorry.

Seems that we may close the PR.
