Trying to upgrade rpm51 running MacPorts 1.7 release branch r47786 I

I have played around with my perl5.8 port and I have what appears to
me to be a solution to the path collision/registry issue.
I modified my perl5.8 Portfile like so:
configure.args-append -D man1dir='/opt/local/share/man/man1' -D
man1direxp='/opt/local/share/man/man1' -D man3dir='/opt/local

Hi,
I have a macports repository up at: http://github.com/avsm/darwinports
... with a number of updates to ocaml-related ports (and also some new
ports). Most of the ports involved are openmaintainers and the
updates are a bit interlinked due to ocaml being updated to 3.11.0.

Hi,
The MacPorts Project will apply again for the Google Summer of Code
(GSoC) program this year. I think most of you will already have heard of
it. Google pays students to work on various Open Source projects over
the summer. It is also a good start for students into Open Source
development.
