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
Approved by: python (maintainer timeout)
runs its signal handlers, not to a random thread that happens to be
executing at the time when signal arrives. This functionality has been
lost since Python 2.3, possible cause is that the linux implementation
of POSIX threads always delivered signal to the main thread. This
bug results in rather annoying inability to terminate threading script
with ^C for example and there could be other issues as well.
Bump PORTREVISION.

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/elmer-meshgen2d
- science/elmerfront
- science/elmerpost
= use x86_64 as ARCH
- devel/g-wrap
= other changes
- print/magicfilter
GNU_CONFIGURE -> HAS_CONFIGURE since it's not generated by autoconf

- Similar to python24, don't pick up ncursesw in python25. This results
in both ncurses are linked into _curses.so

period. Python 2.5 brought a vast range of incompatibility to a
large number of ports, so the python@ team will do more basic
compatibility work in a private repository and merge it later.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Approved by: portmgr (kris)
- Now, lang/python is just a meta-port which depends on lang/python25.
- And all versions of Python ports have short version identifier in its
package name; python25-2.5, python24-2.4.3 and etc.
- Also you must upgrade all python modules after lang/python updated,
cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
- Give maintainership of Python ports to the new python@ group which
includes me, alexbl@ and others.
devel/ncurses installed due to a shared library collision between
a base ncurses from libreadline dependency and a local ncurses from
libncursesw dependency.
