With respect to qcad, I have been able to build it under -current for
quite some time without any problems, but I have not been able to
actually run it - after the initial options dialog it spews a weird
list of javascript errors and quits. I have built it on two different
build hosts, one my usual, the other I made specifically to test qcad,
with almost empty mk.conf, to no avail.
