Hello,

I've noticed that www/opera was marked FORBIDDEN because of a security hole:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=614275+0+current/svn-ports-head

The opera software compagny advisory indeed mark this bug as high severity, and 
mention that there is an update to fix it.

I am not familiar with the security process in ports, but would not it be 
better to update the version? Marking it FORBIDDEN do not do much for the 
userbase that does already have it installed.

I've bumped the versions in the Makefile
OPERA_VER?=     12.11
OPERA_BUILD?=   1661
and made a `make makesum reinstall`, there was no apparent problem.

Regards,
