ctrace is an IPv4 traceroute tool that supports many features missing
in standard 4.3BSD traceroute(8). It is programmed entirely in perl.
The primary difference between ctrace and other traceroute tools is
its ability to trace routes in multiple protocols. ctrace also has
some additional nifty features:
* Automatic round-trip-time (RTT) averaging, which makes output
cleaner and more intelligible.
* One or more packets can be launched per TTL/hop. By way of contrast,
4.3BSD traceroute(8) forces at least two. This capability makes
ctrace faster.
* 4.3BSD traceroute(8) emulation in most output, so it will hook in to
existing parsers.
* The ability to skip an arbitrary number of hops, saving you time
that would be normally wasted tracerouting your own network.
* Fine-grained control over trace packet headers, assisting in
bypassing burdensome packet filters.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Before bsd.port.pre.mk, set either USE_PERL5 or WANT_PERL, depending on
whether the perl dependency is unconditional or conditional. This will
be needed for the conditional inclusion of bsd.perl.mk.
