Major optimizations for 'make index' and other recursive traversal
targets.

* Use /rescue/sh for index builds instead of /bin/sh, when it exists.
  The former is statically linked and faster to execute, which becomes
  significant when executing it tens of thousands of times.  This
  trick can be used with other recursive targets by passing in
  __MAKE_SHELL.

* Get rid of make variable assignments that use != command invocations
  in the critical path, using several methods:

  - rewriting logic to use shell or make builtins instead of external command
executions
  - macroizing commands and executing them in the targets where they
    are needed instead of with every invocation of make

Remove obsolete anti-foot-shooting measure that tried to force you
to use csup for both ports and src.  It should be possible to use csup
for src and portsnap for ports.

If you define SUP_UPDATE without PORTSSUPFILE defined, you'll get
portsnap by default now.

The default method for 'make update' is now portsnap.  Previously,
you had to manually select one of 3 methods: SUP_UPDATE, CVS_UPDATE,
or PORTSNAP_UPDATE.  The latter is now obsolete.

This should help some novice administrators just-start their system.

INDEX files.

As previously announced, remove ports/picobsd/ssh-picobsd due to long-
standing build problems.  Since it was the last port in the picobsd
category, remove it, too.

Discussed with:         kris

Allow to override fetch option by $FETCHINDEX variable.

- In fetchindex target:
  Fetch bzip2 compressed copy of INDEX and decompress locally. This should
  cut down both time and bandwidth.

* Be even more explicit about partial ports trees being unsupported
  for INDEX builds [1]

* Remove the parallel target from Makefile; this is heavily tied to
  the package build cluster and can be better done in the makeparallel
  script (commit to follow) [2]

* Extend the format of INDEX to separately list the
  EXTRACT/PATCH/FETCH_DEPENDS instead of lumping them all in together
  with BUILD_DEPENDS.  The three new fields are appended to the end of
  the record in that order. [2]

* Change BROKEN to IGNORE in BROKEN_WITH_MYSQL failure code [3]

* Support non-default PREFIX for perl 5.00503 [5]

(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )

Be more explicit about INDEX builds not being supported with partial
or out-of-date ports collections.

* Support verbose index builds with INDEX_VERBOSE [1]

* Don't assume root is using /bin/sh when switching credentials to
  configure OPTIONS. [2]

* Support glob expressions in USE_GETTEXT to allow more flexibility
  in the face of future gratuitous library version bumps by the gettext
  developers [3]:

  USE_GETTEXT=yEs   # Works as before (case-insensitive)
  USE_GETTEXT=[5-7] # Accepts any of those libintl.so.x versions
                    # in the LIB_DEPENDS

* Correctly register dependencies when a non-system perl port is used
  on 4.x [4]

Add "fetchindex" target. It fetches the recent index file (INDEX _or_
INDEX-5).

A note about the implementation: I had to add the call to chmod to make
the index file readable to everyone. I'm a little bit surprised by this,
since my umask is 022. Either fetch(1) doesn't respect the umask or it
mirrors the permissions too (I haven't investigated this). Both
possibilities aren't documented in the man-page.

Approved by:    kris (previous version without the chmod)

- Allow processing of info files in non-standard locations; the
  INFO_PATH variable may be used to specify their location.  It defaults
  to 'share/info' for the standard PREFIX, and 'info' when PREFIX ==
  /usr. [1]

- Remove the <category>/pkg/COMMENT files in favour of a COMMENT
  variable in <category>/Makefile [2]

- Prevent patch breakage with VERSION_CONTROL=numbered [3]

- Fix some instances of incorrect WRKDIRPREFIX handling. [4]

- remove useless ${MKDIR} ${WRKSRC} in config target [5]

- remove reference to OpenBSD [6]

Say hello to the new "net-mgmt" category.  There are probably more

Define the default SUP program to be cvsup.

PR:     ports/15992

With CVS_UPDATE, use read-only repository mode by default.

In a spirit of src/Makefile.inc1,v 1.142, get rid of "sticky"
files when updating ports sources with cvs(1).

Correct the bug in 'make index' that failed to substitute back the
canonical PREFIX locations for /nonexistent*

I committed from the wrong tree, and the patch had a missing
INDEX -> ${INDEXFILE} conversion.

Add the INDEXFILE variable, that defaults to INDEX-5 on 5.0 (500036) and
later, and INDEX on earlier systems.  Use this in the 'make index' and
associated targets.  This is necessary to deal with the substantially
different dependencies of ports between 4.x and 5.0 (e.g. ports that
depend on perl).

Merge in some changes from Tools/portbuild/scripts/makeindex: set
LOCALBASE and X11BASE to bogus values during the index build, so
'make describe' does not pick up packages installed on the system and
change the package name or list of dependencies (this will usually
create a broken INDEX file).

Add several new real categories.
