gdal links against the geos C++ library, which the geos docs say not
to do. (The C++ library has a new shlib name every release, because
humans cannot understand if changes to C++ sources cause ABI changes.)

to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
Suggested by tron in PR 47882
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
pkgsrc changes: improve patch comment and explain why it is not
filed/applied upstream.

File too long (should be no more than 24 lines).
Line too long (should be no more than 80 characters).
Trailing empty lines.
Trailing white-space.
Trucated the long files as best as possible while preserving the most info
contained in them.
COMMENT should not be longer than 70 characters.
COMMENT should not begin with 'A'.
COMMENT should not begin with 'An'.
COMMENT should not begin with 'a'.
COMMENT should not end with a period.
COMMENT should start with a capital letter.
pkglint warnings. Some files also got minor formatting, spelling, and style
corrections.
The patch to help serial garmins with prolific adaptors is retained,
but it's perhaps a bit dicey because upstream code has changed a bit.

GeoTIFF represents an effort by over 160 different remote sensing,
GIS, cartographic, and surveying related companies and organizations
to establish a TIFF based interchange format for georeferenced raster
imagery.
This library is the reference implementation for reading and writing
GeoTIFF tags.
