Description:

This is a driver for "homebrew" type serial LIRC reveivers as described here: http://lirc.org/receivers.html It overrides the `normal' uart(4) driver, if you have that driver already loaded or statically in your kernel (like it is in GENERIC) then you need to load uartlirc.ko from loader.conf(5) (or manually via the loader prompt) for the override to work. The driver provides a /dev/lircX node for each serial port in addition to the normal tty nodes /dev/cuauX etc, so you can still use other serial ports normally should you have more than one. Note: it only supports PCI/motherboard serial ports not ones connected via USB, for USB you can use mceusb hardware supported via webcamd, or FTDI hardware supported by comms/lirc natively via libftdi, see: http://wiki.freebsd.org/WebcamCompat and the comms/lirc port's pkg-message.

Simplify plist

Remove duplicate SSP_UNSAFE that's already set by USES= kmod.

Stagaing also no longer needs running kldxref in do-install.

- Switch to USES= kmod.
- Stagify.
- Remove obsolete ${OSVERSION} < 800000 check.

- Update WWW after forum update.
- Bump PORTREVISION.

Add NO_STAGE all over the place in preparation for the staging support (cat:
comms)

SSP support has been added to ports with WITH_SSP for i386 and amd64
on FreeBSD 10, and amd64 on earlier versions.

SSP_UNSAFE is added to disable in a port if it fails to build, but
this should only be used in rare circumstances such as kernel modules.
Otherwise, the port may just be failing due to lack of respecting
LDFLAGS.

On FreeBSD 10, this uses an ldscript in /usr/lib/libc.so to pull in
libssp_nonshared.a to address issues linking on i386 [1].

On earlier FreeBSD versions the WITH_SSP knob will add -lssp_nonshared
to LDFLAGS on i386. This is not needed on amd64. However, several hundred
ports do not currently respect LDFLAGS, so this support is disabled currently
as it causes build failures if a dependency is looking for the stack_chk

Fix a parallel build race.

Looks like I never tested irrecord...  This patch fixes it.

Fix build on recent(ish) 9.x (after r235405 i.e. MFC of r228631.)

Mark broken on powerpc and sparc64: "error: uart.h: No such file or directory".
