and lang/python2 and lang/python3. This change brings us closer to the goal
of making Python ports usable with different Python versions at the same
time.
- Add a new lang/python2 port to handle the symlinks for bin/python2,
bin/idle2, bin/pydoc2 and so on.
- Add a new lang/python3 port to handle the symlinks for bin/python3,
bin/idle3, bin/pydoc3 and so on.
- Bump the PORTREVISION on all lang/python* ports.
. lang/python27: 2.7.3 -> 2.7.5
. lang/python32: 3.2.3 -> 3.2.4
. lang/python33: 3.3.0 -> 3.3.1
- update Mk/bsd.python.mk with new versions
- mark lang/python26 and lang/python31 as deprecated (set them to
upstream EoL dates)
- update docs (lang/python-doc-html)
- align databases/py-bsddb patch for python27 - most of it was applied
upstream. Raise BDB version to 4.3 atleast, according to
upstream requirements.
Many thanks to Martin (miwi) for his time on this update.

- revert erroneous threads patch in lang/python26 and lang/python27,
that was added after ports/131080. It was rejected upstream, because it's
not actually a bug, but misuse.
Gabor Pali (pgj) in collaboration with Kubilay Kocak (koobs) did an
independent investigation regard the issue. See here for details:

- trim Makefile headers
- remove leading indefinite article from COMMENT
- use PYTHON shortcut in MASTER_SITES
- whitespace fixes
- remove checks for unsupported versions of FreeBSD
- use static value ``33'' instead of PYTHON_SUFFIX in lang/python33/pkg-plist,
because this value is not supposed to be changed across the branch and for
consistency with other python3 ports
- remove conflicts in lang/python-mode.el with not more existing python-2.4
${PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION}, this generates conflicting packages.
- Create symbolic links as PEP 394 [1] suggests. ${PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION}
will create python and python${MAJOR_VERSION} links. In current default,
lang/python27 will create: python -> python2 -> python2.7
- Introduce ${PYTHON3_DEFAULT_VERSION}, which will handle bin/python3 link.
At this point, lang/python33 will create python3 -> python3.3
- Minor cleanups
* Trim Makefile headers
* Remove ${OSVERSION} detection for xz, whihc is done by USE_XZ
[1] http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/
(PYTHON_DISTFILE variable)
- switch lang/python ports (and it's slaves) to tar.xz
I compared all the four pairs .tgz/.tar.xz and they have no content differences.

Although POSIX says the type is 'int', all BSD variants (including Mac OS X)
have been using 'unsigned long' type for very long time and its use predates
the standard long enough. For certain commands (e.g., TIOCSWINSZ, FIONBIO),
the Python value may get sign-extended on 64-bit platforms (by implicit type
promotion) and it causes annoying warnings from kernel such as this:
WARNING pid 24509 (python2.6): ioctl sign-extension ioctl ffffffff8004667e

Python 2.6 will be the next default python version when enough
testings of consumer ports are done. The new "2to3" program is
renamed to 2to3-2.6 and 2to3-3.0 for each version, respectively.

Multiple vulnerabilities:
1) Various integer overflow errors exist in core modules e.g. stringobject,
unicodeobject, bufferobject, longobject, tupleobject, stropmodule, gcmodule, mmapmodule.
2) An integer overflow in the hashlib module can lead to an unreliable cryptographic digest results.
3) Integer overflow errors in the processing of unicode strings can be exploited to cause
buffer overflows on 32-bit systems.
4) An integer overflow exists in the PyOS_vsnprintf() function on architectures that do not
have a "vsnprintf()" function.
5) An integer underflow error in the PyOS_vsnprintf() function when passing zero-length strings
can lead to memory corruption.

Security: CVE-2008-2315, CVE-2008-2316, CVE-2008-3142, CVE-2008-3144, CVE-2008-3143. (vuxml come later)
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
