Calife is a lightweight replacement to Sudo: it allows
users listed in a particular file, $(PREFIX)/etc/calife.auth,
to endorse the identity of any other user after entering their
own password.

The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they
had both lines:

Author: ...
WWW: ....

So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary.

Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying
forms, like -- name, etc.

s/AUTHOR/Author/

A few other various formatting issues

-remove MD5

Correct WWW: to references the new URL of the main site.

Change WWW to its primary location.

Fix a potential security problem on Linux/glibc whose getpass(3) apparently
fails with very long passwords leading to a segfault. It may be exploitable.

FreeBSD is *not* vulnerable.

No thanks to: the jerk who posted on bugtraq w/o mailing me beforehand.

Before committing the previous BROKEN changes I carefully checked the status
of each port on bento and for recent fixes.  Unfortunately at some point I
got confused and switched to the wrong list :-)  As a result I picked up a
number of ports that were fixed a while ago.  Sorry for the false alarm,
maintainers.

Update to 2.8.4c.    

New upstream release (fixes segfault).    

Convert category security to new layout.  

It is only fitting that I commit a port of one of my programs :-)   Calife is a
lightweight version of sudo with a unique feature: you can   limit which user
one can become (not just root).
