The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
Rewrite of getopt(1) with the following features: * It can do anything that the GNU getopt(3) routines can do. * It can cope with spaces and shell metacharacters within arguments. * It can parse long parameters. * It can shuffle parameters, so you can mix options and other parameters on the command-line. * It can be easily identified as an enhanced getopt(1) from within shell scripts. * It can report parse errors as coming from the shell script. * It compiles cleanly with both libc-5 and glibc-2.
