Since you committed my change, I updated some ports and contacted the
maintainers of a few others; how do we want to handle the situation in
general?

Can you (automatically) contact all authors whose ports exhibit this
`make package`problem on bento, notifying them of the new infrastructure
for .info files?  Below is a patch for sysutils/cfengine2 that can serve
as a nice example for this mail.

What else should we do to inform all ports maintainers/developers of the
new situation, and have all ports updated by 4.9-RELEASE? (Having a -doc
committer update/simplify the Porter's Handbook would be good.)
