had some problems in the developer's own "My personal settings" section
which was for Linux only. I made it work and then noticed that the
app-defaults was now wrong and so it would not package.
So I commented out the entire "My personal settings" section.
This won't change for other operating system builds because
it was "LinuxArchitecture" only.
I didn't bump PKGREVISION because this didn't build (as far
as I can tell) in the first place under Linux and didn't package
under Linux either.
I tested under NetBSD 1.6.2_STABLE also.
