The GNAT Modified General Public Licence is an older license that is
commonly used with Ada programs, specifically to address legal quirks
with the Ada generics feature.
It is meant to be used as "multi" licence in combination with GPL or
GPLv2. It is not typically seen combined with GPLv3 to my knowledge.

The GCC ports either do not have any license defined, or they are defined
as GPLv3 which is not completely correct. The runtime libraries in the
FSF-issued GCC releases have a standard exception to the GPLv3 license.
In order to properly reflect this, the GCC ports can define a "multi"
license, GPLv3 and GPLv3RLE, which are both in effect.

This mimics the layout of the base system (see hier(7)) and will be used by
ports to install tests into. This directory will later be hooked into the
/usr/tests test suite so that all tests can be run transparently in one go.

This has 2 effects:
- it caches lots of things autotools are looking for and we know that are
already on FreeBSD (speeding up configure scripts)
- it forces the autotool enable build chain to use by default commands from the
base system like sed, awk, cp, bzip2, gzip etc
To overwrite things set in config.site just add the variable in CONFIGURE_ENV

"pkg/COMMENT' which of course blew up in the entire tree when we
changed the layout.
Fix it to use `make -V COMMENT` so it will use even for ports that
define MASTERDIR etc.

While I'm here, add the contents of pkg/COMMENT in category READMEs.
I don't know why I didn't include them in the first place when I've
been creating all those files!

moved to "distinfo" in main directory.
It is disabled by default, but you can test it by defining
NEWLAYOUT. I will convert the entire ports tree in a week and
make NEWLAYOUT the default.

(3) New variable RESTRICTED_FILES to be used when only a subset of a
RESTRICTED or NO_CDROM port's distfiles/patchfiles list is not
redistributable. (Set RESTRICTED_FILES to the list of
redistribution-challenged files.)

4-current post bison-removal and to a no-op otherwise. Note this
should only be used when the software in question uses a feature
in bison that is not in byacc -- otherwise it should be patched to
use byacc (or detect the absense of bison correctly). [bsd.port.mk]
(2) Do not assume all category names are lowercase. In particular,
remove package links by removing them one by one, instead of doing
a "rm [a-z]*/${PKGNAME}.tgz". [bsd.port.mk]
(3) Do not assume the category name doesn't include a path separator
(/). Make links accordingly. [bsd.port.mk,README.category,README.port]
(4) Do not assume all category makefiles are directly under
${PORTSDIR}. [bsd.port.mk,README.category]
(5) Add new "package-name" target which prints out the directory name
to be used in the parent README.html. [bsd.port.subdir.mk]
(2) through (5) are in preparation for going to multi-level
categories. They shouldn't make any difference yet, but are committed
first so people can start testing.
