parentUpgrade to 0.90. (diff)
Add a new port for the new netgraph(4) based version of mpd.
This was done because it's incompatibile with FreeBSD 3.3 and older.

+Mpd is a netgraph(4) based implementation of the multi-link PPP
+protocol for FreeBSD. It is designed to be both fast and flexible.
+It handles configuration and negotiation in user land, while routing
+all data packets strictly in the kernel. It supports several of
+the numerous PPP sub-protocols and extensions, such as:
+
+ Multi-link PPP capability
+ PAP, CHAP, and MS-CHAP authentication
+ PPP compression and encryption
+ Point-to-Point Tunnelling Protocol (PPTP)
+
+Mpd also includes many additional features:
+
+ Dial-on-demand with idle timeout
+ Multiple active connections running simultaneously
+ Dynamic demand based link management (also known as ``rubber bandwidth'')
+ Powerful chat scripting language for asynchronous serial ports
+ Pre-tested chat scripts for automatic configuration of several
+ common modems and ISDN terminal adapters
+ Clean device-type independent design
+ Comprehensive logging
