As I said, for most normal use. Anybody using the stuff on a large scale will
have a fairly unique cocktail of patches.
Or for example take a look at mutt ... there are tons of patches there, not
all of which are supported by the most common rpm builds around.
That's a good thing with freebsd ports - you can compile your own, but it
becomes very easy to specify compile options + patches
[frodo#]mutt-devel: make install clean -DWITH_MUTT_SSL -DWITH_MUTT_POP_IMAP
etc etc.
