Why are portfiles not updated to use the new vcpkg calls?

I had issues with installing specific packages (libsndfile, fftw3) which came down to the fact that the new vcpkg environment applies different scriptnames than the portfiles do (vcpkg_cmake_configure instead of vcpkg_configure_cmake etc.).
It would be handy to either report this on your landing page, add the deprecated scripts for compatibility or simply check all portfiles and fix them instead.

IIRC all ports in the curated registry are using new vcpkg-cmake.
What is your use case?

I figured out what might have been the reason, though it took a while before i got to it:
I cloned the repository through VS2022 in user mode, yet ran the bootstrap batch file in an elevated console prompt.
Eventually, cleared the complete install and cloned and bootstrapped vcpkg with git in an elevated powershell session -> that worked out
