	Yes Code_Aster has problems, but PR ports/176328 is caused by another
	problem located in metis-edf (a patch has been provided, and we are

Regarding this patch, is it ok to just put it
unde files, as:

# ls files/
medis-patch-Lib_Makefile.txt    patch-Lib::proto.h              patch-Test::Makefile
patch-CONFIG::configure         patch-Lib_Makefile              patch-onmetis
patch-CONFIG_onmetis.in         patch-Programs::Makefile
#

How does the ports framework know that
medis-patch-Lib_Makefile.txt must be applied
