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.

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.

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.

Requested by:   netchild (WITH_PERL_MALLOC),
                Joachim Leidinger <jojo@blackpoint.de> (WITH_GDBM)

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
      "find /usr/libdata -ctime -N -delete".

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

Requested by:   sheldonh

2. Do not link with libbind even if Configure detects it.  A particular
reason for that is that perl's getpw* stop working with NIS.

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.
