How to take action on a port?

Hey all,

I'm a port maintainer for a single port, and the Bugzilla is complaining 
to me about an open report.

(https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=246829)

I'm not a committer, and also don't have any ability to change the state 
of the bug other than commenting on it, but this *feels* like pilot error 
to me.

As this is a fairly quiet port (only two open issues right now), what is 
the correct way to resolve this?  (I.e. should I have access to do more in 
the bugzilla?)

I'd also like to take over maintainership for a few other ports with a low 
thrash rate (just to keep them from going abandoned), so getting better at 
this workflow is useful to me.

Best,
