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:
What is giFT, you ask? giFT is a modular daemon capable of abstracting the communication between the end user and specific filesharing protocols (peer-to-peer or otherwise). The giFT project differs from many other similar projects in that it is a distribution of a standalone platform-independent daemon, a library for client/frontend development, and our own homegrown network, OpenFT. The goal of this project is to ensure that user interface developers never waste time with the low-level details of a protocol and that network programmers never waste time with the user interface details. Along those same lines it allows end users to control which protocols they use no matter which giFT interface they have selected as their favorite. Any new filesharing network can be supported without any change to the user interface. WWW: http://gift.sourceforge.net/

Now that new style rc.d scripts are being run as part of the
base rcorder, hard coded variable values in these scripts
are overriding the values in /etc/rc.conf[.local] (due to
the way that variables from the latter are read at boot time).

Therefore, change the boot scripts to set default values only
if the variable is unset in /etc/rc.conf[.local]. This will
allow the service to start at boot time if it's been enabled
as the user would expect.

This change will be a noop for users who have systems that
have not yet been upgraded to the new rc.d code in the base.

In many cases there are other variables in the scripts that
should get similar treatment, however I did not change
anything other than the _enable lines. I'll leave the rest
up to the maintainers to do as they see fit.

Bump PORTREVISION to make sure that users and packages
pick up this change.

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order.  The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.

Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.

Preliminary documentation can be found at:
        http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt

which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.

Light blue touch-paper.  Run.

re-add port net/gift

        The gift project finally makes releases again. So it's time
        to get it back to the ports collection.

        I contacted the former maintainer (lioux) but haven't got
        any reply yet. He is still listed as maintainer but if he
        doesn't like I'd take maintainership.
