I put it right up there with "Top Posting" myself in terms of
arrogance. In any case, I might suggest (which assures it will never
come to pass) that the submitter of a port list somewhere, perhaps a
separate file, a list of all the environments that the port was
actually tested under. If a port was never tested under "amd 64" for
instance, it might be helpful for a potential user to know that prior
to attempting to use said port.
