A patch file for the textproc/py-sphinx port that would fix the problem

When building the Glasgow Haskell Compiler version 8.x that now uses Sphinx to generate its HTML documentation, the following error is got:

Apparently that is due to some problems with the interaction between Sphinx and docutils 0.13.1, which was then reported and resolved as #3212 [1].  Unfortunately, the FreeBSD port does not have the fix for this problem, which could then break the planned update of the lang/ghc port to its version 8.0.2.

I am attaching a patch file that would bring the fix to this issue and make the build of lang/ghc possible.

Thank you Gabor. Could you update the patch to a diff of the port produced after generating the files/patch-file via make makepatch?

This should also be MFH'd

Sorry, I uploaded an incorrect version of the patch.  That should be fine now.

Thank you!

Note: PORTREVISION ought to be bumped too
