I am sorry for the inconvenience, but as Jeremy stated there was no other possibility since the problem persists on the buildbot and only happens there. So I had to do something about it. Since I realized that the port is reasonably small and quite fast to build I decided to risk this. > 2. This is not an openmaintainer port.

Since that's about the duration for reaction concerning ports - I read that somewhere in the wiki a while ago - I thought I would just risk this test now, because I knew that it would be a time-critical thing. Actually I didn't want to force everyone to build the port potentially twice, which is why I tried to hurry up as much as I could. Jeremy unexpectedly helped me to avoid further delays… OK, I am apologizing for this incident. It will never happen again. I hope that the buildbot will have some feature which makes test like these possible without interfering with other users. I am sorry, I am sorry.
