description:
Since we're allowing qmail to be packaged, add a note to the effect
that qmail hard-codes numeric UIDs and GIDs into several binaries.
When installing a binary qmail package, you'll need to ensure that
the qmail users and groups on your system match those with which
the package was compiled.

The binary package is not (yet) redistributable. The only way you'd
get one is by making it yourself. But this allows bulk builds to
finally test all the packages that depend on qmail.

Thanks to joerg for forcing the issue (in a good way).

 Alternatively, you can let pkgsrc do the work by installing the
 qmail-run package.
