This release contains many improvements, including the merge with gnu classpath
0.18

Thanks joerg for testing it under dragonfly
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
- Make kaffe the main package, on which others can depend, and which has no
support for things like sound nor graphics. Bump its revision to 2.
While here, do some cleanup too.
- Add a kaffe-x11 package, that installs on top of kaffe, and which provides
the library needed for AWT support through X11.
- Add a kaffe-esound package, that installs on top of kaffe, and which provides
the library needed for sound support through esound (i.e., no more need for
the USE_ESOUND variable here).
- Remove the kaffe-nox11 package.
by M.Negovanovic PRs pkg/24507, pkg/24508, also add a new Makefile.common
which will be used for the upcoming kaffe-nox11 package and finally
bl3ify.

M.Negovanovic. While this version is actually a ``development'' version,
it has been reported to be much more usable than the stable 1.0.7 version.
Changes to 1.0.7 are far too numerous to list here, see http://www.kaffe.org
and/or the ChangeLog in the tarball.
* Build the kaffe package with PREFIX=${LOCALBASE}/java/kaffe and adjust
the PLIST accordingly. This is to make the Java VM packages consistently
return JAVA_HOME from `pkg_info -qp <jvm-pkg>'.
* License file was wrongly being installed as ${PREFIX}/share.
* Separate out last half of DESCR into a more appropriate MESSAGE file.
subdirectories under ${PREFIX}/java/ -- Change I of many.
Thus, for consistency, also install kaffe into ${PREFIX}/java/kaffe
rather than ${PREFIX}/java
While we're at it, update kaffe to version 1.0.7.
Changes since 1.0.6:
- New version of KJC
- New encoding converters based on iconv().
- Lots of bug fixes
Furthermore, the website says that 1.0.7 has added support for
Darwin, ia64 GNU/Linux, s390 GNU/Linux, PA-RISC GNU/Linux, Alpha for
Compaq Tru64 GNU/Linux and support of PowerPC without libffi.
People with access to any of these platforms are encouraged to test
this version, so we can possibly adjust ONLY_FOR_PLATFORMS etc.
