 You are great!!

 Yesterday you were skeptic if it is possible at all, but the day you could
 falsify yourself :-)

 {{{botan1}}}, and then change the {{{qt4-creator-mac}}} port, on
 {{{powerpc}}} at least, to use it instead of the bundled {{{Botan}}}.
 Very good, I btw. have no access to some x86 based 10.5.8, so I can just
 speculate which other systems will benefit from your surgery.

 I sometimes have seen ports with some explicit version numbers inside
 there names, e.g. `openssl10`, so some `botan1` would be some of these,
 say, level preserving ones.

 Simple question, how to configure your site as temporal overlay?

 BTW, I wonder if I sometimes could contribute with binary builds to the
 MacPorts repository, in our case to `http://packages.macports.org/qt4
 -creator-mac`, but I have no idea (i) how to assemble some (still fictive)
 `qt4-creator-mac-2.8.1_3.darwin_9.ppc.tbz2` conforming some MacPorts
 standards, and (ii) how to upload or get eligible to do uploads? Others
 might benefit and often enough could save a lot of compiling time.
