- Rework INDEX builds: [20]
* Fix the bsd.port.subdir.mk code that is supposed to report index
breakage (the fallback code wasn't actually being run because make
would halt immediately following the error). This should help with
INDEX error reports because it will immediately show the cause of
failure, so we won't have to pull teeth to extract it from the
submitter.
* Streamline the 'make describe' code a bit.
* Provide some basic instructions to the user when an index build
fails, on when and how to report index build failures (turn this off
with INDEX_QUIET=1)
* Removed INDEX_NOSORT, because I couldn't imagine it to be very
useful and it doesn't cost very much anyway.
* Don't prevent INDEX builds from seeing the local host environment.
Since a lot of users are using 'make index' thesedays they should get
an index that reflects their local settings and installed ports. If
you want to build a 'default' index that isn't influenced by local
settings (e.g. for release builds), set the INDEX_PRISTINE variable.
* Allows parallel INDEX builds (using make -j). The most obvious way
of doing this doesn't work, because I/O from child makes is broken up
into 2k chunks, and output lines from 'make describe' that exceed this
length (*cough* GNOME *cough*) will be intertwined with the output of
other makes, leading to a corrupted INDEX. The I/O interleaving
can be disabled using 'make -P', but this inserts extraneous output of
its own, and redirects stderr, making it useless for our purposes.
Instead, I collect the output from the child make processes in
temporary files and recombine them at the end.
* The number of concurrent make processes to spawn can be set using
INDEX_JOBS. By default this is set to 2, which seems to be a sweet
spot for both single and dual-processor systems. On my tests I do not
see any significant performance changes on UP, but on a dual 4.x
system the build time drops by 47% (6 minute index builds on one test
machine!). Depending on your disk and CPU hardware you might see
further gains with INDEX_JOBS=4 or higher, so you might like to
experiment to see what works best. On a dual 5.x system the
performance gains do not seem to be as great (20-30%), but this is
still a significant net win.

While I'm here, change the name of targets and move them around a
little bit for the sake of consistency.
It is also probably worth noting here that the meaning of the
"build dependency" list in INDEX has been changed slightly
changed. The old list was "build depends and its build depends"
-- not particularly useful if you had things like autoconf, which
run-depend on gm4 (you install all the things listed here and
you'll get an autoconf that won't run).
It is now "build depends and its run depends" -- you install
everything listed here, and you'll be able to build the port.

and LOOP_OPTIONS is a space-separated list of values it should
take. When these are set, the target "package-loop" will go
through a clean and package loop for all the options. The
"package-loop" target is defined as "package" when LOOP_VAR is not
defined, so if you are in the business for building packages, you
should use "package-loop" all the time. (This target is added to
bsd.port.subdir.mk too.)
Also, the "describe" target prints out multiple lines so that all
options will go into the INDEX. (In other words, if you define
these variables, INDEX is going to look real silly if you don't
put ${${LOOP_VAR}} in PKGNAME.)

Anyway, here's a set of changes required for auto-generation of READMEs
in ports directories. Necessary changes and additions of templates
to the ports tree will follow shortly.
Eventually I'll commit all the generated READMEs to the tree, but that
will be in the rather distant future. For now, I encourage anyone
with a -current systam and a matching ports tree to do a "make readmes"
at the top level and see what they get.
Next step will be to add pkg/{COMMENT,DESCR} to all the categories.
