Ports/source dance

No port upgrade for rubygem-rail as of yet. No commits to CVS
for the port either. :( The alert was posted only 16 hours ago,
which isn't _that_ long. But rails is back at 1.1.2, which is
already a version behind, so I expect I should upgrade
rubygem-rails from source today.

Should I create my own port (somehow, never done that) and
install from that? Or is there an easier way?

I guess the broader question is how to handle security upgrades
when the port isn't ready.

Thanks,

m
