Description:

PDFlib is a library of C routines which allow you to programmatically generate files in Adobe's Portable Document Format PDF. PDFlib acts as a backend processor to your own programs. While you (the programmer) are responsible for retrieving or maintaining the data to be processed, PDFlib takes over the task of generating the PDF code which graphically represents your data. While you must still format and arrange your text and graphical objects, PDFlib frees you from the internals and intricacies of PDF. Although being far from complete, PDFlib already offers many useful functions for creating text, graphics, images and hypertext elements in PDF files. WWW: http://www.pdflib.de/

Multiple ports: improve regex compliance

These changes largely fall into just two categories:

1. Need textproc/gsed for GNU extensions
2. Extraneous escapes that can go away

For #1, there's a further subdivision into those that require autoconf magic
and those that can get away with BINARY_ALIAS=sed=${LOCALBASE}/bin/gsed.
-CURRENT will soon gain GNU extensions, but these will take longer to get to
all supported releases; we must switch them to gsed to ensure we're actually
properly building them as intended.

For #2, I've fixed these as I can and we should upstream these fixes.

Fix build when JAVA is enabled.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.

Before, we had:

  site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
  perl_man3 :           lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3

Now we have:

  site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
  site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
  perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3

Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order.  The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.

Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.

Preliminary documentation can be found at:
        http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt

which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.

Whoa there, boy, that's a mighty big commit y'all have there...

Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".

For ports-in-waiting:

        USE_LIBTOOL=YES         ->      USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
        USE_AUTOCONF=YES        ->      USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
        USE_AUTOMAKE=YES        ->      USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14

Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.
