patch

I've been working on my own update to this port for sometime, where
	the stumbling block has been trying to locate a tool to decode
	AMD microcode files.

	So, I'm happy to see that this port got updated and includes a tool
	that handles both Intel and AMD microcode files.

	However, I was disappointed that the microcode files don't appear to
	be any newer than before.  Namely I had been trying to update the port
	to microcode-20130906.  I actually don't currently have any amd
	processors, but wanted to incorporate the latest (amd-ucode-latest.tar.bz2)
	for completeness.  On Debian, the files are the same as source for
	amd64-microcode-2.20131007.1+really20130710.1, and the files have a
	datestamp of 20130907.  While all the files on amd64.org have a date
	stamp of 20130927 and the files are dated 20130925.

	The amd-ucode-2012-09-10.tar file extracts to reveal that its a
	duplicate of amd-ucode-2012-01-17.

	In checking Intel site, found that latest microcode file is 20140430.

	Wonder what the newer revision for my CPU brings?

Fix:
Update port to use 'microcode-20140430.tgz' and
	'amd-ucode-latest.tar.bz2'.
