When I install net/linux-f10-openldap (required by www/linux-f10-
flashplugin), it installs a dangling symlink; i.e. /compat/linux/etc/
openldap.
I realise of course that this is a rather trivial question, but should it
be so?

This port (pan-0.139_1) will again not compile on 9.1-RELEASE (amd64).
There are problems (with gtkspell) when using the default options, which
are:
GTK3 off
gtkspell on
The only way I dould get it to compile was by using 'make config' to turn
the gtkspell option off.
