That's good to hear.  Thanks for doing this update.

Regarding putting entire changelogs in commit messages, it's really a
little too verbose.  As Packages.txt states in Section 11.3 (emphasis
added):

	Please always put a *concise*, *appropriate* and *relevant*
	summary of the changes between old and new versions into the
	commit log when updating a package.

When I update most packages, at a minimum, I go through the supplied
changelog and trim out stuff that's not user-noticable, and also stuff
that's not for any of the pkgsrc-supported platforms, i.e.  keep stuff
for NetBSD, Solaris, Linux, and Darwin, but toss out all of the FreeBSD,
OpenBSD, Netware, Win32, and BeOS stuff.

So for this apsfilter update, lines worth putting in the commit log are:

While the rest of those below just clutter and take up space on
cvs.netbsd.org, anoncvs.netbsd.org, and its mirrors.
