I think that Kurt answered the question "Do you - you personally - keep
every version of the shlibs you ever built, as opposed to somehow - not
necessarily automagically on port installation/upgrade or periodically -
clean up the unused ones" :)  You are correct that the original question
was probably meant to differentiate between the two options you listed.

G'luck,
Peter
