mmm I see.....ok let's do it this way. Let's say that i untar the 
3.6.5.1 tarball and write a script that patches all the needed files 
before running the usual steps of configuration.

If I have understood well what I have to do I need to use all the 8 
diff files you uploaded on the macports server, join them and apply the 
result to the extracted tarball directory. I can try that with

patch --dry-run

to find if the patching is properly perfromed and the files are not 
affected by patching. Now i have to figure out which are the right diff 
files to patch the legacy version and the new version since I'm 
noticing that the source path structure is different in the new 
tarball. Do I have to use all of them or not ? Can i write just one 
single diff file to apply before building from source as usual ? I was 
thinlking thah once the work is finished i could post it on the mailing 
list so it'd be available for everyone.....let me know if you like the 
idea.
