I remember hearing about the firefox advocacy site being taken down due
to a drupal security issue.  However, I am interested in learning more
about drupal, because of its popularity.

From what I have seen of other PHP applications, they are typically
heavily modified after installation; often not full-powered out of the
box, and requiring a hodge-podge of 3rd party extensions and modules.

Is there a way to automatically apply local patches to extracted
distfiles without modifying the pkgsrc Makefiles?
