[ Sent to -current and -ports, followups set to -current ]
Here's another trivial patch that people might like to comment on before I
commit it. I'm doing more and more FreeBSD installs recently at various
client sites, and adding "FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS=-p" to make.conf is just one of
those standard things you have to do if there's a firewall in place.
Any one got any objection to mentioning that fact, with the included patch?
