 You're right.  I explicitly preapprove the addition of whatever CONFLICTS 
 statement to emulators/wine will be appropriate by whoever is going to 
 commit that new port of yours.  (I won't be able to test this on amd64,
 but I am hopeful some other committer will grab it.  If not, nudge them
 at emulators at FreeBSD.org or ports at FreeBSD.org. ;-)
 
 Thank you very much for your perseverence on this matter, David!  I do
 believe it made the result all the better.
 
 Gerald
