On 05-Jan-99 mcmahill@mtl.mit.edu spoke unto us all:

#  If I have a smallish operation I want to do in a package before patching,
#  is it prefered to make a shell script in "./scripts/pre-patch", or to make
#  a "pre-patch" target in the pkgsrc Makefile?  I've seen it done both ways.
#  

Generally scripts are used if its a big operation.. or you want to do something
horribly complex and need perl, or whatever..  for something relatively simple,
I allways try to use the makefile targets.. so people dont have to go exploring
my directories to figure out how to fix things.
