Thanks for contributing! I have committed the port in r22138 with the  
following changes:

1. I added you as the maintainer in addition to Matthew.
2. I added sha1 and rmd160 hashes in addition to the md5 hash. I  
recommend Matthew make the same change to gtk-extra.
3. I changed the checksums line so it doesn't mention the tarball by  
name; there's no reason to do so and it's just one more thing you'd  
have to update each time. I recommend Matthew make the same change to  
gtk-extra.

I guess the MacPorts copy command isn't available until MacPorts 1.4?  
so "system cp ... ..." is still the best way to copy something? Once  
MacPorts makes the copy command available, I suppose that would be  
safer than direct system calls.

In the future, I think the best way to submit a new port is to create  
a ticket in Trac, then notify the list that the ticket exists.
