>Description:
	It seems that this warnings are due too the usage of PATCHFILES
	in this packages, especially the usage of patch-*.

	Normaly this is harmless, but something happend and a patch-ab: directory
	was created in games/nethack-lib/patches. Thats not a good thing.
	I also had a /home/temp/distf[: distfiles directory, my normal one is
	/home/temp/distfiles.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Do a make checksum or make fetch in:
games/angband-x11
games/nethack-qt
games/nethack-x11
	and notice the folowing output:
[: /home/source/pkgsrc/games/angband-tty/patches/patch-ab: unexpected operator
[: /home/source/pkgsrc/games/nethack-lib/patches/patch-ab: unexpected operator
[: /home/source/pkgsrc/games/nethack-lib/patches/patch-ab: unexpected operator
>Fix:
	Use PATCHDIR?
