>Description:
	The CMUCL port installs always the binary for FreeBSD 6.x,
	although binaries for later versions are made available by the
	CMUCL maintainers.  It would be better, especially considering
	there is a change of libc from 6.x to 7.x, to install the
	version matching the OS.

State-Changed-When: Fri Aug 7 14:41:46 EDT 2009 
State-Changed-Why:  
We have discussed this on the CMUCL mailing list. 

The situation is that since CMUCL is useless without providing 
binaries in the first place, and those binaries have to be provided on 
cons.org, that we don't want a highly developed FreeBSD port that 
needs separate maintenance. 

Some people were in favor of actively deleting the FreeBSD port, which 
I don't agree to. 

But the consensus is that providing a common binary that runs on all 
FreeBSD versions is the right thing to do.  Everybody who wants more 
from CMUCL will have to dig deeper and visit cons.org anyway.  But the 
common binary provided by the port will be enough for pretty much all 
Common Lisp tasks, in particular for third party software requiring 
CMUCL, or homework assignments asked to be completed using CMUCL. 

In summary: we decided to leave a simple port that installs one binary 
that runs on all FreeBSD versions, and not complicate the port.
