  It looks like you (Tamas) and Jan are talking about the same thing.

  Jan's link eventually leads to this:

	https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/commit/a7c3fd3d428e

  Which is a bump in libepoll-shim from 0.0.20190311 to 0.0.20190903.  I'm
running the would-be-previous version:

	$ pkg info | grep libepoll
	libepoll-shim-0.0.20190311     epoll shim implemented using kevent

  Not sure why I'm not seeing the updated Makefile yet.  It looks like Jan
bumped the version from 0.0.20181229 -> 0.0.20190311 back in late April.

	$ (cd /usr/ports && git branch && git remote -v)
	* master
	origin   https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports.git (fetch)
	origin  https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports.git (push)

  Browsing into the git repo still shows my current version:
