If the port existed in a version prior to the release of 2.22 (see
/usr/ports/UPDATING for the date), grab the port from just before that
date. if your use csup or cvsup, you can do this by editing your
supfile to include a date and run csup/cvsup with the -i option.

It's really is not that hard, although it is a bit of work.
