Well, if you have a version like say "2" you'll hit a few. :-)
But you are right, there aren't as many of those nags anymore...

So it's just the "Variant foo does not have a description" and
"use_configure no" instead of declaring an empty configure phase


But it could also be the surprise factor of having someone else
mess around with the ports, more than the lint process itself.
