 is some extra configuration required for cedet and  ecb to work.  The
 following commands need to be executed to be able to use cedet and ecb.

 > I've never used emacs, cedet or ecb so I don't know what to do with
 this. If you figure out what needs to be changed, let us know; if you can
 create a patch for the portfile that fixes the problem, and attach it to
 this ticket, that's even better.

 This is currently (if regrettably) the expected behavior for elisp
 packages: we install and (usually) byte-compile them but don't add
 anything to load them at runtime. I'd like to change this at some point
 and set up a systemwide site-start.el file that does the right thing to
 load each package, but it's complicated a bit by the fact that there are
 multiple available versions of emacs (emacs, emacs22, emacs-app, emacs-
 app-devel), some of which can be installed simultaneously.
