approach to deal with two situations which are both problematic:

  A) a fork being maintained in pkgsrc, because upstream is nonfunctional
  or won't take patches

  B) lots of patches that should have been upstreamed haven't been

  A) actually fork and package the fork

  B) follow our documented policy and send them upstream
