Build our own, private static db3-3.1.17 library, because Ximian recommends
using 3.1.17, insisting that Evolution might not work properly with more
recent versions (3.2.9 in this case). Bump PORTREVISION.

Update to 0.12. Unfortunately it still doesn't work, even with fixed oaf,
however it goes further that earlier and instead of hanging solidly at startup
tries to launch its components, but goes kaboom (i.e. sig 12) and dies in
agony. Therefore, brave souls with loaded debuggers are welcome to fix this
fscking crap and submit their patches to gnome@FreeBSD.org.

Mark as B0RKEN - out of sync with the latest gal (it was not working, so not a
big deal really).

SWitch maintainership of core GNOME ports to a small group of committers
(gnome@FreeBSD.org), since this is now definitely too big for just one person.

Update to 0.9. Please note that I was not able to get anything but cool splash
screen out of it, so use with caution. However, this version at least compiles
with, which is a big step forward ;-).
