>Description:
www/typo installs its tmp directory with root:wheel ownership, and does not make
this writeable by the web server. This makes it so Typo/Rails cannot create
cache files if running out of this directory (or write out sessions if you are 
using the filesystem for sessions).
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Here is a patch to the port's Makefile that chowns Typo's tmp directory to
www:www, as is done with the log and public directories.
