Aha, cool.  The original MacPorts portfile was pretty much a straight  
port of FreeBSD's I believe, so I'll try to keep them synched up.  The  
biggest difference between MacPorts and fbsd is that, like open,  
destrooting is mandatory as we don't use port-provided plists...

Looking over the freebsd port reminds me of another question I had:  
what is BDB used for and should I put a knob for it in to the  
portfile?  The wiki doesn't list it as a required package and my quick  
search couldn't turn up what it was used for.

I also added a test target to the Portfile just now...

Thanks,
Eric
