Pursuing diffs on re-rolled sources might be nice, but Doug, after
you also refused to allow ports to flag installs of binaries not
built from fetched sources ? ... Balance seems missing !

I didn't "refuse" anything, I have no actual authority. :) I'm just a
lowly committer. What I _did_ say was that I agreed with the policy that
ports should be built from a stable set of sources, and I voiced my
opposition to the idea of changing that policy.

My concern about the changes to the sources of this port is along the
same lines.


Doug
