[kde-freebsd] x11/xsnow in KDE4.14.3

[T.C.Berner]

Hi Matthias

Yes, xdecorations does not seem to work with the configuration file. But
passing the options
via command line seems to work "mostly" -- maybe it was a bad idea to pull
the latest commit
for the port ^^ ... proably one could find the problem in the source code.
xdecorations -help give you the possible values.

No, I never gave xsnow itself a shot (I only found xdecorations after a
google search for xsnow+kde).
