capabilities and many bug fixes, while maintaining strict source
compatibility with user code already written for the 3.6 API.
Much of the code was the result of two events, the September 2012 GNU
Radio conference in Atlanta, GA, and the November 2012 GNU Radio
hackfest held at Ettus Research in Mountain View, CA. Additional work
(not discussed here) from these events has been incorporated into the
'next' branch of the code repository, and will become part of the 3.7
API release series.
New features include asynchronous message passing between blocks, new
blocks for interfacing with operating system networking stacks, the
ability to write new signal processing blocks in Python, enhanced file
source and sinks that can store metadata, flowgraph latency control,
improvements to documentation, and further conversion of existing code
into the 3.7 API organization (while leaving existing blocks in
place.)
The detailed changelog is here:

-Update libtool and libltdl to 2.2.6a.
-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.
It has been tested with GNOME2, XFCE4, KDE3, KDE4 and other many wm/desktop

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)

actual waveforms transmitted and received are defined by software.
What this means is that it turns the digital modulation schemes
used in today's high performance wireless devices into software problems.
