That's a good suggestion.

Mark, as to the portlint problem - well, portlint cannot really be
expected to handle each and every corner case in a port Makefile :)
It is doing a wonderful job as it is, but every now and then you have
to make a choice between a working port and a clean port ;)

To make the OSVERSION check work, you do indeed need a bsd.port.pre.mk
inclusion before it.  Then... just ignore the portlint warnings.

And... thanks for a great utility! :)

G'luck,
Peter
