* Fix build on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD 7.3
* Update MASTER_SITES
Changelog:
This is version 5.0.5 of the shell. This is a stable release.
There are minor new features as well as bug fixes since 5.0.2.
5.0.3 and 5.0.4 were short-lived releases with most of the features of
5.0.5 that were replaced owing to significant bugs.
Incompatibilities between 5.0.2 and 5.0.5
-----------------------------------------
The "zshaddhistory" hook mechanism documented in the zshmisc manual page
has been upgraded so that a hook returning status 2 causes a history
line to be saved on the internal history list but not written to the
history file. Previously any non-zero status return would cause
the line not to be saved on the history at all. It is recommended
to use status 1 for this (indeed most shell users would naturally do
so).
Patch it up to use compile-tests rather than run-tests in autoconf
for many of its tests (OS-independently). Teach it about the few
remaining properties for NetBSD in particular.

Changes since 5.0.0
-------------------
Numeric constants encountered in mathematical expressions (but not other
contexts) can contain underscores as separators that will be ignored on
evaluation, as allowed in other scripting languages. For example,
0xFFFF_FFFF, or 3.141_592_654.
"functions -T" turns on tracing for the specified function(s) only,
similar to "functions -t" except that tracing is turned off for any
functions called from the specified one(s) that don't also have the -t
or -T flag.
In file completion, the recursive-files style can be set to an array of
patterns to match against "$PWD/". In any matched location, it is
possibly to complete files in arbitrarily deep subdirectories without
needing to type the directory prefix. See example in the zshcompsys
manual.
The _user_expand completer now allows expansion functions in the
user-expand files to return a string in REPLY that will be used to name
the set of expansions returned.
* PLIST.xattr is moved to Makefile.common
* Patches are introduced from zsh-current
Tested on NetBSD 6.99.8 and 5.1.
