Yes, that's relevant.

I've used the examples Ryan pointed me to to come up with an implementation 
that appears to work:

There's apparently no such thing resembling a pull request that says "please 
consider incorporating this new version of you-know-what file", right? Would be 
nice if you don't have to fork the whole beast of a ports tree for upgrading 
just a single file...
