Thanks. I would have filed a ticket but I was just running out the
door so I just sent an email.

FYI, you should not increase the revision for changes of this kind.
Either the user was unable to build the port at all (like me, since I
was on Tiger and thus did not (and could not) have Xcode 3), or the
user was able to build the port, in which case forcing them to
rebuild now serves no purpose. If the files the port installs, or the
port's dependencies, haven't changed, then there's usually no reason
to increase the revision. Don't decrease it again now, but do keep it
in mind for the future to keep your users from having to rebuild
unnecessarily.
