I did it on purpose.  It seems the default behavior of fortune(6) is not as
intended when dealing with additional fortune packages from ports.

sun # pkg info -s fortune-mod-bofh
fortune-mod-bofh-2.0_3         32.1KiB
sun # fortune -f all
___% /usr/share/games/fortune
    ___% freebsd-tips
    ___% murphy
    ___% fortunes
    ___% startrek
    ___% gerrold.limerick
    ___% zippy
    ___% limerick

Without first exporting FORTUNE_PATH all those additional fortune files will
not be searched when using 'all' option and I don't think that explicitly
exporting this variable is the cleanest thing to do here.

Your thoughts?  Maybe we should patch fortune(6) so that it searches through
/usr/local/share/games/fortune also by default?
