Oh, hmm, I think I lied.  I've got a license for MIPSpro on my Indy, but
it doesn't boot.  

I was actually wondering what was involved with maintaining a part of
the ports tree...  I'm not that familiar with ports, as I only use BSD
for single purpose servers, and thus don't have a lot of software to
install.
