Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
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.

Postgresql upstream does not use libtool. pkgsrc used to change
postgresql to use libtool, and this package was written to use the
pkgsrc-added libtool support. pkgsrc no longer modifies postgresql to
use libtool, so postgis did not build.
In addition to backing out all the make-postgis-use-libtool packages,
this commit adds a patch to add rpath to the PGSQL_FE_LDFLAGS, which
upstream hand constructs from pg_config output.
PKGREVISION++, but no change in version or functionality (from the
previous state, which also didn't build) intended.
Bug Fixes
* #410, update embedded bbox when applying ST_SetPoint,
ST_AddPoint ST_RemovePoint to a linestring
(Paul Ramsey)
* #411, allow dumping tables with invalid geometries
(Sandro Santilli, for Regione Toscana-SIGTA)
* #414, include geography_columns view when running upgrade scripts
(Paul Ramsey)
* #419, allow support for multilinestring in ST_Line_Substring
(Paul Ramsey, for Lidwala Consulting Engineers)
* #421, fix computed string length in ST_AsGML()
(Olivier Courtin)
* #441, fix GML generation with heterogeneous collections
(Olivier Courtin)
* #443, incorrect coordinate reversal in GML 3 generation
(Olivier Courtin)
* #450, wrong area calculation for geography features that cross
the date line
(Paul Ramsey)
* Ensure support for upcoming 9.0 PgSQL release
(Paul Ramsey)
pgsql's Makefile.shlib are patched around. ('make test' passes on
netbsd-5/i386 with postgresql84.)
This is a major release adding a significant number of new features including:
* New "geography" type for managing geodetic (lat/lon) data
* Performance-enhanced distance calculations
* GML and KML format readers
* Improved shape loading GUI
* And more!
Release Notes

database. In effect, PostGIS "spatially enables" the PostgreSQL server,
allowing it to be used as a backend spatial database for geographic information
systems (GIS), much like ESRI's SDE or Oracle's Spatial extension. PostGIS
follows the OpenGIS "Simple Features Specification for SQL" and has been
certified as compliant with the "Types and Functions" profile.
PostGIS/PostgreSQL includes the following functionality:
* Simple Features as defined by the OpenGIS Consortium (OGC)
* Support for Well-Known Text and Well-Known Binary representations of GIS
objects
* Fast spatial indexing using GiST
* Geospatial analysis functions
* PostgreSQL JDBC extension objects corresponding to the geometries
* Support for OGC access functions as defined by the Simple Features
Specification
