Updating emacs fails

I deinstalled and rebuilt and reinstalled the ncurses port, and now emacs 
builds fine.  Gaaah.  I think the former version was the package that gets 
installed with 8.2, but reconstructing the former state would be a 
challenge.

So, uh, I guess we chalk it up to bit rot.  "Never mind."

I have a couple of other ports that fail in similar ways, but I think I'll 
wiggle a few more moving parts before reporting the problem.
