I would not waste your time on vdr-plugin-upnp.  All multimedia/vdr* ports
should probably be removed as they haven't really been updated in 6 years
and are based on an old developer snapshot of vdr.  I doubt updates of it
are trivial either given the amount of patches in some of them.  I wonder
if there are even users of it left too.

I deprecated djmount and vdr-plugin-upnp with expiration date of next week.
Let's see if somebody complains and if not go ahead with the update to 1.8.
