Hi ports@,

Here is a new port: games/trader.

The game requires strfmon(3) which we don't have, but I noticed that
productivity/gnucash goes around this issue by bundling FreeBSD's libc
version of strfmon(), and uses it as a fallback on systems which do not
have it.

Using borrowed/libc/strfmon.{c,h} from the GnuCash distribution tarball,
trader builds and runs fine with some minor patching. I have been in
touch with upstream and he's working on adding strfmon() to the GNU
portability library which trader uses, so we should be able to remove
all patches in the future.

>From DESCR:

Star Traders is a simple text-based game of interstellar trading, where
the objective is to create companies, buy and sell shares, borrow and
repay money, in order to become the wealthiest player (the winner).

Comments? OK?
