The current port (at least at www2) is 3.0b.  I tried compiling 
Glimpse 3.5 with this port (changing the dist name) and got a number of 
errors.  The one patch didn't seem to be the problem as the same code was 
in the same place in 3.5.  Maybe one of the skilled porter persons would 
take a look at this and update the port.  A port for the new version of 
Harvest would also be nice :-)).

Cheers
