If someone knows a better way of handling this (using something else  
than IGNORE, with the same effect to people trying to build it from  
ports but with a better behavior when used with portupgrade -PP), I'am  
all ears (a better way of fixing this would be to include preparsed  
linux stuff, but there are more important things on my TODO list...).

Alexander.
