Hello Derek,

What were you sorry about? Was it top-posting? But you still do it.
If you don't know that term, please use Google to find it out.

If you were sorry about not keeping CC: to ports@, then you
misunderstood me -- I advised you to keep CC'ing to the list while
I have no objections (for my email) to be at the To: field. So there
were really nothing to be sorry about (at this case). It was just a
friendly advice, because more people at the list may help.

Well, this _is_ expected. But I didn't ask for it. I suggested _you_
checking it and read the man page for brandelf ('man 1 brandelf')
so you may understand what to do next.

Sorry, but this information is useless for me.

BTW, you didn't answer questions which may show your problems.
