The process described at 
<http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-04/msg00596.html> for inserting 
the history of ports into the libc repository.

Users of ports will most likely be putting it in a "ports" subdirectory of 
libc at present when building, so on that basis as well putting it in a 
ports subdirectory, then renaming the files, would seem a natural way to 
reflect the change as it will be seen in the source trees used for 
building.
