 Thanks in advance to anyone who may work on this.

 No!

 We allow propitiatory, commercial, or otherwise restricted software in
 the tree. I don't see why the request should be denied on these
 grounds.

I question the usefulness of a manual-fetch port for such a trivial

never noticed by the package building systems.

Let's please give him a break... I'm sure he's not intent on destroying
FreeBSD with his evil plans!
