GNU GLOBAL is a source code tagging system that works the same way across
diverse environments, such as Emacs editor, Vi editor, Less viewer, Bash shell,
various web browsers, etc.
You can locate various objects, such as functions, macros, structs, classes, in
your source files and move there easily. It is useful for hacking a large
projects which contain many sub-directories, many #ifdef and many main()
functions. It is similar to ctags or etags, but is different from them in the
following two points:
- Independence of any editor
- Capability to treat definition and reference
devel/global: fix license and remove unnecessary Perl dependency
Fix LICENSE to reflect upstream COPYING file (multi-license: GPLv3+,
LGPL20+, LGPL21+, BSD3CLAUSE, BSD4CLAUSE). Remove perl5 from USES
as it is only needed by niche scripts not installed by the port.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Install texinfo files (GNU info) into ${PREFIX}/share/info
After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.
Now texinfo is not in base on any of the supported version of FreeBSD
it is possible to proceed to this move and it is easier to do than
the manpage change.
Other benefit than consistency are less patching: all build tools but
cmake are expecting info files to be under share/info and cmake (patched here)
was having an exception for BSD so the patch makes FreeBSD case less
specific for them
Bump revision of all impacted ports

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D17816
- Display a stage-qa warning when ports use PREFIX/var instead of /var
- Add --localstatedir=/var to _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS (like --mandir) but not
when CONFIGURE_ARGS already sets it. (GNU configure scripts set it to
PREFIX/var when PREFIX != /usr.)
- Add --localstatedir="${PREFIX}/var" to CONFIGURE_ARGS in some ports so
they aren't affected by this change (for now at least). This commit is
meant to ensure that new ports don't make the same mistake.
- games/acm: the configure script in this port is very old; instead of
patching it more, just replace GNU_CONFIGURE with HAS_CONFIGURE.
- irc/charybdis: it already used /var but adding --localstatedir=/var
changed the behaviour of the configure script; adjust the port to this.

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
