I'm working on the software to make this happen.  I'm kinda-sorta
thinking about dumping it all into the netbsd-ports-alike thing that was
brought up here recently, but I hate the idea of "flavors" and would
rather let end-users have the option of selecting -exactly- the features
they need.  If you just want CVS access to my notes:

  cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at celestrion.net:/pubcvs co portslist

The notes are in a state of flux right now because I realized my
previous compiler environment was screwed-up.  I'm going through the
list from top to bottom (I think "openssh" was the last project I
compiled) and trying to make as much of the system 64-bit as possible.
