Yes, I'd like to make it clear I was also trying to help. The Makefile 
for gnuchess has this line:

MAINTAINER=     ports at FreeBSD.org

BTW, I wasn't simply complaining. I figured out a way to make it work 
and posted it in order to help others who might have been having 
problems. I'm not yet familiar enough with patches and such to change 
the Makefile in this sort of situation, otherwise I just would have 
sent a patch.
