===> The following configuration options are available for python24-2.4.5_8:
THREADS=on: Enable thread support
UCS4=on: Use UCS4 for unicode support
NLS=on: Enable Gettext support for the locale module
PYMALLOC=on: Use python's internal malloc
IPV6=on: Enable IPv6 support
FPECTL=off: Enable floating point exception handling
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
- Fix builds, if the NLS option switch is set. In some cases
expat-related modules are not built correctly.

- Add LDFLAGS to CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV (as it was done with LDFLAGS)
- Fix all ports that add {CPP,LD}FLAGS to *_ENV to modify flags instead

Fix fcntl module to accept 'unsigned long' type commands for ioctl(2).
Although POSIX says the type is 'int', all BSD variants (including Mac OS X)
have been using 'unsigned long' type for very long time and its use predates
the standard long enough. For certain commands (e.g., TIOCSWINSZ, FIONBIO),
the Python value may get sign-extended on 64-bit platforms (by implicit type
promotion) and it causes annoying warnings from kernel such as this:
WARNING pid 24509 (python2.6): ioctl sign-extension ioctl ffffffff8004667e

- Ask the first Python installed to install the bin/python link,

Make sure the singal is delivered to the main thread, where python
runs its signal handlers, not to a random thread that happens to be
executing at the time when signal arrives. This functionality has been
lost since Python 2.3, possible cause is that the linux implementation
of POSIX threads always delivered signal to the main thread. This
bug results in rather annoying inability to terminate threading script
with ^C for example and there could be other issues as well.

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
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- Make Python 2.5.1 the default Python version
- Add significantly better support in bsd.python.mk for working with
Python Eggs and the easy_install system

- Force setup.py picks up readline and ncurses from base. This fixes build
when devel/ncurses installed.
- Similar to python24, don't pick up ncursesw in python25. This results
in both ncurses are linked into _curses.so

Revert the default version of Python to 2.4 for the ports freeze
period. Python 2.5 brought a vast range of incompatibility to a
large number of ports, so the python@ team will do more basic
compatibility work in a private repository and merge it later.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

- Update the main python version to 2.5.
- Now, lang/python is just a meta-port which depends on lang/python25.
- And all versions of Python ports have short version identifier in its
package name; python25-2.5, python24-2.4.3 and etc.
- Also you must upgrade all python modules after lang/python updated,
cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
- Give maintainership of Python ports to the new python@ group which
includes me, alexbl@ and others.
