  Affects: users of lang/erlang

  Author: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@FreeBSD.org>

  Reason: 
    Following the R14B04 upgrade the JAVA, X11, WX and ODBC port
    options have been set to OFF by default; this will allow to replace
    lang/erlang-lite with lang/erlang for headless operation in the
    near future.
  
    If you need any of these options, run "make config" in lang/erlang
    before upgrading, or set your make.conf accordingly.

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.

Fix TOOLS_VSN version number.

Remove ERTS_VSN from PLIST_SUB while I'm here.

No PORTREVISION bump since only pkg-message is affected.

Do not include util.h.

If net/libbgpdump was installed then the Erlang build would pick
up a stray util.h and fail to build.

No PORTREVISION bump required: existing installations are just fine.

Now that the Java 1.3 and Java 1.4 ports are deprecated and will expire soon,
remove support for them from bsd.java.mk.  As Jikes is not available in Java 1.5
or higher, remove it from bsd.java.mk too (suggested by hq@) and from the ports
which used it (only occurences were USE_JIKES=no).  Support for the Blackdown VM
is also removed, as it is not available in Java 1.5 and higher.

Also remove the mapping from Java 1.1-1.4 to Java 1.5+ in bsd.java.mk to detect
old, broken ports; therefore bump the minimal value of JAVA_VERSION to 1.5.
While here, replace static values of JAVA_VERSION in files/*.in by
%%JAVA_VERSION%% .

In FreeBSD jails, the source and destination address of connections
to localhost are changed to be the IP address of the jail.

Consider connections from the host's IP address to itself (e.g., the

Remove obsolete message about nsswitch.conf in FreeBSD 5.x (no

Patch erlc.c to automatically pass the "-smp disable" arguments to
the Erlang runtime.

This should hopefully fix the pointyhat build hangs which seem
related to the Erlang SMP runtime (beam.smp).

Revert 1.152, which cannot possibly work until erl is installed in
${LOCALBASE}...

- Add --no-same-permissions to the EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS command.

Tijl Coosemans has been reported an issue that when root is extracting from the
tarball, and the tarball contains world writable files
(sysutils/policykit as an example), there is a chance that the files
gets changed by malicious third parties right after the extraction,
which makes it possible to inject code into the package thus compromise
the system.

Add "buildplt" target to Makefile. When invoked, it builds a full
PLT database in the user's home directory for the dialyzer application.
However, this operation is very expensive and should only be performed
if necessary, as dialyzer already provides a minimal PLT by default.

Remove NOPRECIOUSMAKEVARS; when ARCH is i386, set ARCH=x86 in MAKE_ARGS.

If the Erlang port was built as a dependency of another port,
ARCH=i386 was set for some reason and the Hipe build would fail.

Fix a few "bad example" problems in the rc.d scripts that have been
propogated by copy and paste.

1. Primarily the "empty variable" default assignment, which is mostly
${name}_flags="", but fix a few others as well.
2. Where they are not already documented, add the existence of the _flags
(or other deleted empties) option to the comments, and in some cases add
comments from scratch.
3. Replace things that look like:
prefix=%%PREFIX%%
command=${prefix}/sbin/foo
to just use %%PREFIX%%. In many cases the $prefix variable is only used
once, and in some cases it is not used at all.
4. In a few cases remove ${name}_flags from command_args
5. Remove a long-stale comment about putting the port's rc.d script in
/etc/rc.d (which is no longer necessary).

No PORTREVISION bumps because all of these changes are noops.

The per-thread last floating point exception pointer is not initialized
to NULL when it is allocated. As a result, spurious floating point

Add bugfix for ei_decode_big.

"The high order bits of the 16-bits digit (short) are read, even if
the byte (at u[(i*2)+1]) doesn't belong to the big. In other words,
big numbers such as 16#1234567890 with an odd number of bytes are
decoded with a garbage byte (i.e. 16#XX1234567890)."

Remove obsolete patch.

Upgrade to version R12B-4.

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.

To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.

To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.

Changes to Mk/*:
 - Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk

Upgrade to version R12B-3.

Disable automatic PLT generation. Add the following patches:

* patch-lib_dialyzer_src_Makefile

  Avoid computing the PLT when building the port. It may take so
  long that the port building cluster thinks this is a runaway port.

* patch-lib_dialyzer_src_dialyzer__cl.erl

  Trick dialyzer into building the PLT even after the port is installed.

* patch-lib_dialyzer_src_dialyzer__cl__parse.erl

  Let every user have his own initial PLT in ~/.dialyzer_init_plt.
  When dialyzer is invoked the PLT will be rebuilt if needed.

This commit will fix both ports/105869 and the pointyhat port checks.
