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.

Add support for DESTDIR part I.

This commit should largele be a NOOP as it only adds support
for DESTDIR undefined. This does allow us to start testing
ports with DESTDIR set, but this is as of yet not supported.

Although this has been extensively tested on pointyhat, this
is a very intrusive change and some cases may have been
overlooked. Please contact Gabor and me if you find any.

If one of locale-related variables set to a bad value in the user's
environment (like da_DK.ISO_8859-15 as opposed to da_DK.ISO8859-15 on
-CURRENT), perl ports cannot be built.  While this condition clearly is
an operator error, it is still no excuse for the build failure.

Fix that by cleaning locale-related variables for configure and build
steps.  No plist changes, no portrevision bump.

Update bsd.port.mk's notion of the perl version (to 5.8.6) [1].
Use more correct OSVERSION threshold to distinguish between
base system perl and perl from ports - the right value is 500036 [1].

Also, simplify OSVERSION-related logic in lang/perl5 and lang/perl5.8.
Now it goes as follows:

- for lang/perl5.8, if there is perl in the base system, install
  use.perl script, use a helpful pkg-message, and do not automatically
  update symlinks;
- for lang/perl5.8, if there is no perl in the base system, do not
  install use.perl script, and update symlinks automatically;
- for lang/perl5, always install use.perl;
- for lang/perl5, never update symlinks automatically;
- for lang/perl5, vary produced pkg-message depending on the presence of
  the base system perl.

Bump PORTREVISION for both lang/perl5 and lang/perl5.8.

Update to 5.6.2.  Also:

- redirect output from h2ph to /dev/null [1];
- fix File::Path insecure file/directory permissions [2];
  this resolves CAN-2004-0452
  (http://vuxml.freebsd.org/c418d472-6bd1-11d9-93ca-000a95bc6fae.html);
- for OSVERSION < 500036, create symlinks in /usr/bin not only for
  perl and suidperl, but also for a2p, c2ph, find2perl, h2ph, h2xs,
  perlbug, perlcc, perldoc, pl2pm, pod2html, pod2latex, pod2man,
  pod2text, s2p, and splain;  perl and suidperl are still enough for
  more recent FreeBSD versions [3];
- clean up created symlinks upon deinstallation [4];
- try to cleanup symlinks created by older versions of lang/perl5 and
  lang/perl5.8, during both installation and deinstallation [5];
- added support for DISABLE_BSDPAN environment variable [6];
- be explicit about use.perl usage after installation of 4.X systems,
  and on systems where lang/perl5.8 is prefered to lang/perl5; the exact
  range is OSVERSION < 500036 || OSVERSION >= 502100 [7];
- respect __MAKE_CONF partially (the build-time value is used) [8];
- use.perl is now the same as pkg-install is now the same as
  pkg-deinstall;  apart from the changes already mentioned above, this
  is a shell script now;
- use.perl's logic is also simplified in several ways [9];
- fix a BSDPAN bug [10];
- create and remove %%SITE_PERL%%/%%PERL_ARCH%%/auto, just
  like  lang/perl5.8 does, to silent pointyhat [11];
- apply a patch to handle daylight saving time correctly in
  POSIX::strftime [12];
- the port now creates and uses shared libperl.so, as lang/perl5.8 port
  does;
- move MAN3 manual pages under ${PREFIX}/lib/perl5/${PERL_VER}/perl, as
  to avoid conflict with some of the p5 ports;
- do not build suidperl by default any longer;  one should use
  ENABLE_SUIDPERL to do that;
- move out manpage list to a separate Makefile.man;
- in general, the port layout is made much more similar to lang/perl5.8,
  including.

Outstanding issues: Module::Build support for BSDPAN, SU_CMD support (PR
70831), PR 64963 (partially), and anything else that I forgot.

On recent 5-CURRENT, there is no Perl wrapper.  It is therefore possible
that /usr/bin/perl5 doesn't exist, which violates some of use.perl's
assumptions.  Take care of this case. [1]

Also in the case of a recent 5-CURRENT, automatically perform
"use.perl port" during package/port installation.  This helps the
installation of sysinstall's new "Perl distribution", in that
sysinstall doesn't need to do this explicitly as Yet Another Special
Case. [2]

Fix a bug in perl 5.6.1 described in

http://archive.develooper.com/perl5-porters@perl.org/msg58812.html

with a patch from

http://archive.develooper.com/perl5-porters@perl.org/msg58819.html

While we normally do not fix non-FreeBSD problems with 3rd party
software, it is expected that perl 5.6.1 will be used widely for some
time to come, and the bug is bad enough to grant the inclusion of the
patch here.

Due to popular demant into each port which might be inserted into dependency
list by bsd.port.mk insert anti foot-shooting device, which prevents
infinite fork loop when the user defines corresponding USE_XXX in global
make.conf, command line or environment.

Similar devices should probably be inserted into ports that might be inserted
into dependency list by others bsd.foo.mk files (bsd.ruby.mk, bsd.python.mk
and so on.)

Add two knobs:

WITH_PERL_MALLOC - to compile with perl's own malloc, as opposed to the
freebsd system malloc.  Some might find this useful, since perl's malloc
is marginally faster in typical cases, and orders of magnitude faster in
degenerate cases.  Use with care.

WITH_GDBM - to compile with gdbm support.

1. Merge from src/contrib/perl5/lib/ExtUtils/Attic/Install.pm rev. 1.2:

          Force installs. This is to allow (semi-)automatic garbage removal by

Well - substitute /usr/libdata with /usr/local/lib/perl5 here.

1. Do not do rm -rf as a mean to deinstall this port.  Instead, apart
   from normal rmdir'ing and unexec rmdir'ing, do a find | xargs rm for
   generated .ph files, since those will differ in different versions of
   FreeBSD just like .h files may not be the same.

2. Install.pm is broken in 5.6.1 and leads to the wrong .packlist
   generation, which, in turn, breaks BSDPAN.  Fix that.

3. Extend use.perl to patch /etc/manpath.config so that manpages for
   modules installed by this and other p5- ports are be available.

Put SITEARCH and SITELIB paths in front of ARCHLIB and PRIVLIB in the
@INC array. This takes care of the infamous problem of updating the
packages already in the perl distribution. With this change, no tricks
are any longer necessary for such p5 ports, except the usual tweaking of
INSTALLDIRS in Makefile.PL. This last one can also be taken care of by
an appropriate BSDPAN modifications, but until we have the `natural'
@INC order in the 4.X base system perl, it is meaningless.

Do not include iconv.h and do not link with libiconv. Iconv is not used
by perl in any way currently, but it used to link it if found.

Fix perl on freebsd/sparc64.
