Selecting an age from a birthday date field in mySQL

I added this to the mySQL manual a while back, but it seems to have been filtered out in more recent versions of the docs. Although I prefer to do my arithmetic in PHP, this query will determine an age from a date field birthDate in mySQL.

SELECT YEAR(NOW()) - YEAR(birthDate) - IF ( MONTH(NOW()) < MONTH(birthDate), 1, 0 ) - IF ( MONTH(NOW()) = MONTH(birthDate) AND DAYOFMONTH(NOW()) < DAYOFMONTH(birthDate), 1, 0) AS age

FreeBSD thinks vpopmail isn't installed even when it is

I grappled with this problem a little bit today, where FreeBSD kept insisting on installing vpopmail from other ports even though it was already installed. The port install would fail, however, because FreeBSD won't install over another package without making "reinstall". I couldn't figure out why it thought vpopmail was not installed until I froze the screen when it was checking, and I noticed that it looks for /usr/local/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a. Since I install vpopmail to /home/vpopmail, that file was in /home/vpopmail/lib/ !
I just did:

mkdir -p /usr/local/vpopmail/lib
ln -s /home/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a /usr/local/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a

and the problem went away.
