Don peril-sensitive sunglasses and correct the spelling of ukulele.
...
"Ukulele" is the canonical term, with "ukelele" being a derivation.
Also there is some evidence that the original appearance of the quote
had the spelling "ukulele", although anyone who has a copy of Esquire
from March 1967 is welcome to prove me wrong.

systems such as ports/security/freebsd-update. This commit simply
