Additional changes:
* Took ownership. Maintainer's timeout expired,
and my repeated requests to the maintainer went unanswered.
* Rewrote the package description. Also submitted it to the
upstream with the suggestion to replace the current description.
* Used tarballs accoding to the policy.
* Added the STATISTICS port option to reflect the option in configure.
