- Add Makefile.common
o A new build/install system for gecko ports, Makefile.common
includes many generic routines and common tasks.
o Fix ld-run-path in all gecko's by using -Wl,-rpath,${moz_libdir}
thus removing the need to have a startup script for ports that
depend on gecko. [2]
o Use system libm, nss, nspr in all gecko ports
- Add bsd.gecko.mk
o This is the predecessor to WITH_MOZILLA=[mozilla|firefox|...]
with a more robust way of detecting a gecko a end user wishs to
use.
o bsd.gecko.mk abstracts the selection of gecko-based backends. It
allows users and porters to support any available gecko backend
without needing to build many conditional tests. ${USE_GECKO} is the
list of backends that your port can handle, and ${GECKO} is set by
bsd.gecko.mk to be the chosen backend. Users set ${WITH_GECKO} to the
list of gecko backends they want on their system.
Port Makefile example:
USE_GECKO=firefox mozilla seamonkey thunderbird
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
.include "${.CURDIR}/../../www/mozilla/bsd.gecko.mk"
End user example:
WITH_GECKO=seamonkey firefox
We highly recommend moving away from using WITH_MOZILLA and switching to
USE/WITH_GECKO.

Thanks to: adamw, marcus, and mezz for ideas, bug squashing, and more
sajd from irc.freenode.org/#FreeBSD-Gnome for
pointing out many bugs
before it would install in the strange place like this.
${X11BASE}/lib/thunderbird/include/thunderbird-1.0.6
Now it will install in the correct place like firefox:
${X11BASE}/include/thunderbird
Also, get *.pc and idl files install.
- Didn't copy following from www/firefox/Makefile:
* plugins stuff, because it's known cause the stability problem like
crash.
* EXTRA_SCRIPTS=${PORTNAME}.rb, thunderbird doesn't need it.
- Make portlint happier.
- Add Java 5 plugins support. [1]
- Use system's libm (/usr/src/lib/msun), nss, nspr and etc. Also, do
not extract those. Better explain, use external dependencies. [1]
- Teach firefox-config and *.pc files for nspr that will making other
third apps to buildable like epiphany, vlc-devel's mozilla plugins
and etc. Have been tested with full GNOME 2.11.x build too.
- Add four patches: [1]
patch-bugzilla243151:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243151
patch-jsosdep:
Fix the FreeBSD define
patch-oji-threads:
64-bit wide pthread_t
patch-xptcinvoke_x86_64_linux:
Setting a possibly uninitialized variable (value).
- Fix a crash that can occur using gtk+-2.7 and possibly 2.6.10 when closing
windows. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3002 [2]
- Get rid of FIREFOX and FF_VER, best to use PORTNAME and PORTVERSION
varibles that are arleady exist and lesser complicate.
- Change all hardcore of 'thunderbird' to PORTNAME.
- Change a manual loop for patch all.js to find(1), so we can sleep
on it.

See http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/releases/ for all the juicy
goodies in 0.8.
This is being done instead of the update to 0.8 since we're in a ports
freeze, and too many big changes is not a good idea.
This update covers the following Mozilla bugs:
245066
226669
250862
255067
256316
257317
258005

This has the same limitation that Firefox 0.9 had where it needs to be run as
root first. I applied the same hacks to workaround that; however, some users
may need to run thunderbird twice before it starts correctly.
* Fix a potential hang with esound
* Fix some potential pthread issues
* Add more platform compatibility patches
* Fix libiconv support
* Pull in some patches from firefox to shorten the plist some
