I was thinking more along the lines of just posting the Makefiles, at
least at first, and if they are OK, then put up the tars.

Is that OK or a bad idea? I'm just thinking that I'll get some simple
stuff wrong in the Makefiles the first time and leave a mess on the
list. I've never worked on a project this big, so just let me know
anything that's the best way.

A couple of the PGObject Makefiles were a bit complicated with the
postgresql testing parts. Our postgres testing module even needed a diff
for one of my Makefiles to work.

I also have p5-PGObject-Util-DBAdmin, which I haven't submitted yet, that
seems to need an interactive test that uses the postgres user's password
and also has
pre-test:
        mkdir ${WRKSRC}/t/var

The testing part from the port isn't creating the var directory.
portcheck complains about hardcoded paths for that.

I'm good with whatever works best.
Thanks,
Chris
