Once again, you fail to understand that it is not the job of portmgr to
fix all the broken things, it is to curate the ports tree.  If we find a
simple fix, like here, we do that, and if we can't, we mark them BROKEN
so that they are taken out of the builds and do not waste resources on
the package builders, and their maintainer can fix them.
