 To avoid changing other lines in the Portfile. I don’t like when `svn
 blame` tells me that line //x// was last changed in changeset //y//, only
 to find out that that all changeset //y// did was append a backslash or
 replace tabs with spaces. It’s undeniably unavoidable in many cases, but I
 try to avoid it when I can. For instance, I commit aesthetic changes
 before functional ones, so that the functional changesets all show up in
 `svn blame`.

 In this case, I just added two new lines without touching anything else.
 When 8.6.3 shows up, these two lines just get deleted. Nice and clean.
