Problems found with existing distfile:
distfiles/libiconv-1.13-cp932.patch.gz
No changes made to the libiconv distinfo file.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
mpack-1.6 introduced more security on Unix-like systems by creating
and using a helper function, os_createnewfile, that uses O_CREAT|O_EXCL.
Unfortunately, it also uses it to write the total number of parts
temporary file, which fails if more than one part contains the
total number (as mpack creates them!)
The new code compares old and new totals, if both exist, and only
writes the new total, if the old didn't exist. Problem solved and
one sanity check more at the same time.

developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
