Expect is a program that performs programmed dialogue with other
interactive programs.  It is briefly described by its man page, expect(1).

It uses pseudo-tty's to control the child processes, so it is not affected
by programs that refuse to read from stdin or pipes. (eg: passwd(1) etc).

Let expect detect and use openpty(3), and therefore allow it to utilise
as many ptys as we support. The breakage was caused by a bogus (or
temporarily introduced) CONFIGURE_ENV.

Touch configure, because Makefile.in is patched after configure (patch-ac vs
patch-aa), which confuses configure

remove maintainership

    I haven't had the time to be a good maintainer for the lang/expect
    and devel/libstroke ports for a very long time.

    Please change maintainership to ports@ and hopefully someone
    w/more time and energy can pick up the torch.

Refer to the distfile with an explicit version number instead of   invariably
downloading the latest one.  This (a) unbreaks this port   until somebody
updates it to 5.33.0, and (b) prevents this port from   automatically being
broken when a new version comes out due to   checksum mismatch.
