It's pretty difficult to translate from pre-buildlink2 to
post-buildlink2, which is why I myself have stopped requesting
pull-ups. For my own desktops, I rebuilt everything against the branch
a couple of months ago, and now track current. The packages themselves
haven't gone through much churn (as the build system has), so it's
easy to update one or two at a time from the current pkgsrc.
