(I came across this because of the dupe...)

"as-is" is not appropriate here. From portdir/licenses/as-is:

<<<
This is a generic place holder for a class of licenses that boil down to do
no guarantees and all you get is what you have. The language is usually
similar to:

  Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and its
  documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted, provided
[...]
Note: Most all license have an "as is" clause. For our purposes this does
not make all software in this category. This category is for software with
very little restrictions.
>>>

An important clause here:
<<<
 * 1. The materials contained herein are unmodified and are used
 *    unmodified.
>>>

Could you please add the actual license to the tree?
