I tried psearch which didn't turn that up, but did turn up some other MovableType related things that had the "mt" abbreviation in their names, so I even tried ls -d ports/www/*mt* but, of course, that didn't catch this. It would be good to change the COMMENT for the port to include the term MovableType so that psearch (and presumably other tools) will catch it. Thank you.
