FreeXL is an open source library to extract valid data from within an Excel
(.xls) spreadsheet.
FreeXL design goals:
to be simple and lightweight
to be stable, robust and efficient
to be easily and universally portable
completely ignoring any GUI-related oddity
Note that the final goal means that FreeXL ignores at all fonts, sizes and
alignments, and most formats. It ignores Pivot Table, Charts, Formulas, Visual
Basic macros and so on. FreeXL is structurally simple and quite light-weight
(typically 40-80K of object code, stripped).
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

- Convert to USES=libtool pathfix
- Use CPPFLAGS/LIBS instead of CFLAGS/LDFLAGS
- Don't use locale_charset on FreeBSD 10 with converters/libiconv installed,
always use nl_langinfo from libc instead
- Make ports use the libc provided iconv implementation on 10-CURRENT
after r254273
- Fix a bunch of ports to properly work after this
- Mark converters/libiconv as IGNORE for systems with iconv in libc
