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.

New port linux-ov511-kmod, a usb webcam driver based on the linux
driver 'ov511' (from the linux sources) built on FreeBSD using
devel/linux-kmod-compat. The driver supports some ov511 based
webcams.

THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL CODE, TRY IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

This is only for 6.x/7.x and at the moment only for i386.

Most bugs and limitations are due to linux-kmod-compat rather than
this port itself, so upgrading linux-kmod-compat (and rebuilding
this port) will most likely improve functionality and remove some bugs.

As usual if some of the port gurus wants to help fixing any mistakes
that i may have made in the port (or missing things, e.g. a suitable
warning message when the port is installed), i will be very grateful
(and can spend more time working on the emulation code).

In particular, i could not find a good site (ftp or web) to fetch
individual linux source files from, so i copied them on my web server
and used it as MASTER_SITE. This should be fixed though.
