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)

This is a workaround: sparc64 video drivers probably need more exclusions.

Something in the infrastructure changed in the late July timeframe that
actually caused this problem. The only major thing at that time was the
autoconf/libtool change, but I can't see how that could have caused this
failure mode. It only happens on 5.x; 6.x and 7.x are fine.

X.org 7.3 applied to the xorg-server port, so the special keys
of Sun USB keyboards can be used with the sun_usb XKB symbols
map and the LEDs of Sun RS232 keyboards work again.
