freebsd stable - Oct 2011 - backup for /var/db/ports

Hi

With /etc/periodic/daily/220.backup-pkgdb I would also suggest backing up 
/var/db/ports dir

Maybe it's better to combine into one script.

I'm curious as to the reason for doing this. The options are easy to
recreate, and not particularly dynamic.
