--- Comment #4 from Tijl Coosemans <tijl at FreeBSD.org> ---
Correct installation of devtools requires linux support.  If users then disable
linux support before building linux-skype_oss_wrapper that's their
responsibility.  The build error is also a better outcome for the package
builders because then they will report the error.  With IGNORE they will just
ignore the port.  And compat.linux.osrelease is no guarantee that linux gcc
will run, because it's no guarantee that linux64.ko has been loaded.  You would
have to check kern.features.linux64 for that, but this isn't available on
FreeBSD 10 so you would have to add even more .if conditions.  Just leave it as
it is.  Users should know that linux ports require linux kernel support, for
everything, building, installing, using and uninstalling.
