I use portinstall/portupgrade, and it does not provide a knob for this 
change.  I could install 'the traditional way' I suppose, but then there 
is still no knob provided for those who don't wish to do that.

If Philip feels, and no-one else chimes in to the contrary, that no 
increase to the default is necessary, that's fine.  I just wanted to be 
sure the issue was aired and that anyone who had come across it and 
wondered before got a chance to speak up so we know what the common 
feeling is.
