 Basically, this GNATS DB handle packaging problems for pkgsrc, not orignal 
source bugs.
 But if the bug and its workaround is clear, it may be acceptable, but should 
be also accepted by upstream.
 (it will be not welcomed that someone report pkgsrc local patch related 
problems to upstream)
 If the maintainer exists, he/she may coordinate the bug with upstream.
