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) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Fix CONFLICTS lines, as requested by eik then petef:

        I think it's a bug that linux_base thinks it conflicts with itself.

--petef

        The problem occurs if you do
          make install; make install FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=yes
        which is somewhat supported, although [seldom] (never?) used.

--eik

Also record conflicts with cle_base.

Lars Eggert reports:

        Installation of linux_base-7.1_2 fails when linprocfs is
        mounted.  Unmounting linprocfs before installing works
        around the issue.

At Lars' suggestion, this script also mounts the linprocfs after
installation.  I assume that if the user has a linprocfs entry in
/etc/fstab, the user wants it to be mounted.  It also seemed like
a good idea to un-mount it before de-installation.

For i386, update glibc and for the Alpha, mark forbidden due to
remotely exploitable RPC bug (Red Hat advisory RHSA-2003-089 and
CERT advisory CA-2003-10).

According to <URL:http://www.redhat.com/apps/support/errata/>, "all
errata support for Alpha products, Sparc products, and Powertools
products have reached end of life."

I didn't do any run-time testing of this, but it packages and
deinstalls cleanly.

Update glibc to 2.1.3-28 in order to correct buffer overflow in
