Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op
Changes to individual ports, other than removing the CONFIGURE_TARGET hack:
= pkg-plist changed (due to the ugly CONFIGURE_TARGET prefix in * executables)
- comms/gnuradio
- science/abinit
- science/elmer-fem

ports/net/mutella does not build on 5-CURRENT with GCC
3.4.x. One of the fixes in the new version of mutella is
to allow it to be built with GCC 3.4.x. The attached patch
updates mutella to the most recent version which allows it
to be compilable again under -CURRENT.

I don't have the time to give to many of the ports I maintain at
the moment. I wasn't expecting to be so busy this summer ...
Please set all my ports back to ports@freebsd.org.
