i havent looked yet at the various libaec & netcdf/grib related ports
diffs sent recently, but if qgis failed, that's because geo/gdal links
against hdf5 and netcdf, so if there's a WANTLIB change somewhere in
there, all geo/gdal consumers (a bunch or ports) might have WANTLIB
changes.

i was hoping to have a look at some point...
