The script is http://cvs.openpkg.org/openpkg-re/src2make.pl

No, it does no building, it just checks the vendor locations on the
Internet and reports the differences. The stuff you can find under
http://cvs.openpkg.org/openpkg-re/vcheck/

This will not work for all packages because of dependencies between
them. Lots of packagesa require others to be build _AND_ installed
before they can be built itself. That's why you need the src2make.pl
stuff.

There are usually not multiple versions of a package in current/SRC/.
This happens only temporarily between the time we uploaded an updated
package (new version) and the time when the cron-job removes out-dated
versions (old version). The cron-job runs hourly, so if there are
multiple versions they will be gone at last after 1 hour.
