Oh my goodness! Satoshi is finally fed up and decided to "clean up"
all the COMMENTs! No package names, no version numbers, no "this is absolutix-3.1.2" type comments that have zero information contents. Now, without any bad examples to follow, nobody has an excuse to import a port with those kind of comments. :) Phew! 238 ports modified!
