The comservd program provides a facility to access network terminal
server serial ports, such as those available on Xyplex terminal server
models, via /dev device file entries. This allows programs such as
tip(1) to access devices connected to the terminal server serial
ports.
Additionally, comservd can serve up local serial ports to remote
systems, effectively turning the system running comservd into a
terminal server with respect to its own local serial ports.

The domain bsdforge.com has expired, mark all ports that only
uses bsdforge.com as broken (unfetchable). Additionally set ports that
uses bsdforge.com as primary site and have broken mirrors as broken
too as they're also unfetchable.

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.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.
