| Hi.
| 
| Some time ago espie@ added a check to make sure that /usr/ports was not a 
symlink because this could break a couple (or 3?) ports.
| I hate that restriction.
| Last time I talked to him he said that chromium needed to be fixed because it 
was one of the outstanding ports that would not build with a symlinked 
/usr/ports.
| 
| Well I just reverted the diff and chromium built fine with /usr/ports -> 
/home/cvs/openbsd/ports today.
| So I am proposing to revert the diff and if any other port breaks because of 
this, I volunteer to fix it/them; I just find the restriction stupid.
| Sometimes it is good to adapt the infrastructure for broken stuffs, but here 
it makes no sense especially if we are talking about a couple of ports.
