Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

FInally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Ruby is the interpreted scripting language for quick and easy object-oriented programming. It has many features to process text files and to do system management tasks (as in Perl). It is simple, straight-forward, and extensible. Features of Ruby are shown below. + Simple Syntax + *Normal* Object-Oriented features(ex. class, method calls) + *Advanced* Object-Oriented features(ex. Mix-in, Singleton-method) + Operator Overloading + Exception Handling + Iterators and Closures + Garbage Collection + Dynamic Loading of Object files(on some architecture) + Highly Portable(works on many UNIX machines, and on DOS, Windows, Mac, BeOS etc.) Author: Matsumoto "matz" Yukihiro <matz@zetabits.com> WWW: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/

- Set _RUBY_BASE=PREFIX if defined _RUBY_PORT_TEST
  _RUBY_BASE=LOCALBASE otherwise for easy ports testing.

lang/ruby18:
- Update to 1.8.3

Grant maintainership to submitter.

While I'm here:
- Add _RUBY_PORT_TEST=yes to lang/ruby16 port too.
  (lang/ruby1[68] must set it for right install).

knu search for other commits by this committer
The slippery pthread support for systems prior to 502102 has been
dropped and the lang/ruby16_r and lang/ruby18_r ports have been
removed, since no one seems to appreciate the partially working
solution.

Good news is that the pthread support of lang/ruby18 is now enabled by
default for newer systems, which means the ruby interpreter is linked
with libpthread.  This will allow threaded extension libraries to run
and work properly on those systems.

The --march=cputype flag is disabled because it gets ruby to
malfunction and fail to build.  I don't know if the problem is in
libpthread or in gcc.

(It really makes me wonder if they had actually tested before asking
me to do this somewhat risky change ;-)

Change the default version of ruby to 1.8 for i386 as well, finally.

Always put a version suffix to the ruby name (no matter if ruby is the
default version) to avoid mess in future.

[Notes for i386 users]

If you are a ruby developer and still want to stick with ruby 1.6 as
default, please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.

If you are a ruby developer and want to keep ruby 1.6 as default,
please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.  Otherwise, please
run the following series of commands to migrate to ruby 1.8:

  1) Reinstall portupgrade manually (and ruby 1.8 will be installed)
