I don't really see the point of adding cmucl to pkgsrc as it can only
be built by itself. What is wrong with downloading binaries from
common-lisp.net or one of the mirrors ?

I guess a package could ensure that x11/motif was installed first.

I haven't built the last few monthly snapshots as it required -8 or
-current, I have local changes to get it to build again on -7 that I
will commit once I remember how to use git.
