Note:  The latest version of the ports tree that will successfully work 
with FreeBSD 4.x must be cvsupped using tag=FREEBSD_4_EOL and *not* tag=. 
like normal.  After that tag was put on the ports tree, the ports team 
ripped out all support for building ports on FreeBSD 4.x.

If you want to install newer versions of software than what is in the 
FREEBSD_4_EOL ports tree, you will need to either upgrade to FreeBSD 6.x, 
or install it manually via source tarballs and 
the "standard" './configure; make; make install' method, taking extra 
care to get the ./configure --options right.
