I just saw that the guys at FreeBSD just imported pf as of OpenBSD 4.1. With that in base, there is no need to have an extra port for ftp/ftp-proxy anymore for the 7.0 branch.

So I wanted to write a patch to IGNORE the port for FreeBSD>=7. But then I saw that someone was faster than me.

This all sounds like good news, and indeed it is. Up to a certain point. Originally I had written the port, because FreeBSD lacks libevent, which ftp-proxy needs. Now the FreeBSD guys actually did import the new ftp-proxy, but they did not import libevent… in reality they are linking it against a local copy of libevent in their ftp-proxy code.

WTF? I would have expected this from Apple, but not FreeBSD!
