Just some comments, all IMHO:
>devel/gmp_1.3.2-8.deb -> math?
Not sure about this one, but the bulk of thinks I've used GMP for
weren't really math (crypt mostly) and it finds a lot of use that is
more general than math. But I guess it is as good a place as any.
>editors/xwpe_1.4.2-1.deb -> devel?
It's an editor, and quite useful even form non-code. I'd leave it in
editors.
>net/ppp_2.2.0f-23.deb -> comm?
>net/diald_0.16-6.deb -> comm?
I think these should stay in net, since they have more to do with
networking software (by providing a transport mechanism) than they do
with comm programs.
