Description Colin Percival 2003-06-19 03:40:15 UTC
  Update to misc/bsdiff from version 3.0 to version 4.0.  Version 4.0 
produces significantly smaller patches than version 3.0 when the new 
file has large compressible portions not matching the old file (eg, when 
moving between two significantly different versions of an executable 
program.)
