New Libraries
* Context: Context switching library, from Oliver Kowalke.
Updated Libraries
* Algorithm:
- Fixed is_sorted_until ; now matches the c++11 standard behavior on ranges with
duplicate values.
- Added range support for the rest of the search algorithms.
- unhex now uses Boost.Exception to signal bad input.
* Asio:
- Fixed an incompatibility between ip::tcp::iostream and C++11.
- Decorated GCC attribute names with underscores to prevent interaction with
user-defined macros.
- Added missing #include <cctype>, needed for some versions of MinGW.
- Changed to use gcc's atomic builtins on ARM CPUs, when available.
- Changed strand destruction to be a no-op, to allow strand objects to be
destroyed after their associated io_service has been destroyed.
- Added support for some newer versions of glibc which provide the
epoll_create1() function but always fail with ENOSYS.
- Changed the SSL implementation to throw an exception if SSL engine
initialisation fails.
- Fixed another regression in buffered_write_stream.
- Implemented various minor performance improvements, primarily targeted at
Linux x86 and x86-64 platforms.
* Config:
- Deprecated a whole bunch of macros that were c++11 specific, but not named to
show that they were c++11 specific. Made new macros with better names, and
paired the old macros with the new ones. Updated the documentation to list
the deprecated macros.

New Libraries
* Algorithm: A collection of useful generic algorithms, from Marshall Clow.
This includes several different searching algorithms, as well as most of the
new algorithms from the C++11 standard library
* Functional/OverloadedFunction: Overload different functions into a single
function object, from Lorenzo Caminiti.
* LocalFunction: Program functions locally, within other functions, directly
within the scope where they are needed, from Lorenzo Caminiti.
* Utility/IdentityType: Wrap types within round parenthesis so they can always
be passed as macro parameters, from Lorenzo Caminiti.

Remove devel/py-ctypes (only needed by and supporting python24).
Remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED and PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCOMPATIBLE
lines that just mirror defaults now.
Miscellaneous cleanup while editing all these files.
The openSUSE 12.1 meta-package provides a number of components for a
openSUSE-based Linux binary emulation environment.
This package does not contain anything by itself -- it is a "meta-package"
that depends on other packages. Its sole purpose is to require
dependencies so users can install this package only and have all the
other packages pulled in automatically by the pkgsrc dependency
mechanism.
* gdk-pixbuf and gtk are not used anywhere in pkgsrc and suse>10.0 does not
support them.
* vmware module was used for emulators/vmware* packages, but it had been removed
from pkgsrc.
