Update from 2.0 to 2.2
Note: Matt Dillon's 2xP3/450 w/512MB can build world over NFS faster than my
k6-2 333 can compile this port. It was *NOT* fun to test this port.
Maybe someone else (with a super fast computer) could make sure
everything works. This port does pass the make install deinstall
reinstall package deinstall test though so I assume everything
is fine.
