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
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op
Changes to individual ports, other than removing the CONFIGURE_TARGET hack:
= pkg-plist changed (due to the ugly CONFIGURE_TARGET prefix in * executables)
- comms/gnuradio
- science/abinit
- science/elmer-fem
- science/elmer-matc

- science/elmerfront
- science/elmerpost

- s|INSTALLS_SHLIB|USE_LDCONFIG|
- add two mirrors
- update pkg-plist, tarball was rerolled [1] without bumping the version
- reformat pkg-descr (fmt -w 80)
- bump portrevision
[1]
Changes:
- added support for pkg-config
- funetak.l - replaced random() with gtf_random(); eliminates build error in
mingw
- "auto-files" are generated with automake 1.9.6 instead of automake 1.9.5
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.

* MASTER_SITE and WWW have moved; update them. Going to the old URL simply
redirects you to the new site.
* Distfile was re-rolled with extensive changes. All the autotools stuff
was regenerated using a newer autoconf/automake ver. Additionally, the
code for the "dubya" filter was modified to include an Irix-oritented
fix, its manpage was changed, and the talkfilters info page was updated.
* Author apparently did not feel that these changes warranted a new release
number *glares at author*
I don't like how much was changed in a re-rolled tarball, but there you are.

the libtoolX ports instead of the one included with each port. Ports that
set USE_LIBTOOL_VER=X will now use the ports version of libtool instead of
the included version. To restore previous behavior, use the new macro,
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER. Both macros accept the same argument: a libtool version.
For example, to use the ports version of libtool-1.5, add the following to
your Makefile:
USE_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
To use the included version of libtool with extra hacks provided by
libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile:
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
With this change, ports that had to add additional libtool hacks to prevent
.la files from being installed or to fix certain threading issues can now
delete those hacks (after appropriate testing, of course).

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.
From the website:
The GNU Talk Filters are filter programs that convert ordinary English text
into text that mimics a stereotyped or otherwise humorous dialect. These
filters have been in the public domain for many years, but now for the first
time they are provided as a single integrated package. The filters include
b1ff, brooklyn, chef, cockney, drawl, fudd, funetak, jethro, jive, kraut,
pansy, postmodern, redneck, valspeak, and warez. Each program reads from
standard input and writes to standard output. This version of the package also
provides the filters as a C library, so they can be easily embedded in other
programs.
