syscons always owns the devices. This should allow usb only
setups as well as help people who are setting xorg input options
on usb devices.

- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libglut since the shlib
version number went from 4 to 3.
- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libXaw as libXaw.so.8 isn't
installed anymore.
- Couple of ports fixes (mostly missing xorg components added to USE_XORG).
See http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.24/ for the general
release notes. On the FreeBSD front, this release introduces Fuse support
in HAL, adds multi-CPU support to libgtop, WebKit updates, and fixes some
long-standing seahorse and gnome-keyring bugs. The documentation updates
to the website are forthcoming.

These patches were tested together by mezz, and individually by
Andriy Gapon and Andreas Wetzel respectively.
This allows hal to properly reflect the correct access device, and prevents

FreeBSD. The official GNOME 2.22 release notes can be found at
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/ . On the FreeBSD front,
this release features an updated hal port with support for video4linux
devices, DRM (Direct Rendering), and better support of removable media. Work
is also underway to tie webkit more closely into GNOME. As part of the
GNOME 2.22 upgrade, GStreamer received a rather large upgrade as well.
Be sure to consult UPDATING on the proper steps to upgrade all of your
GNOME ports.

* Be gentler when probing removable media USB and SCSI devices as to not
spam the console with media read failures where there is no media inserted.
This will aleviate the problem with USB/SCSI floppy drives and card

* Add a new utility function, hf_str_no_slashes(), that converts '/' into '_'
for purposes of UDI constructions. UDI path components cannot contain
embedded slashes, and a trailing slash will cause hald to crash. [1]
* Ensure that UDIs of ATA and SCSI devices are unique. [2]
* Do not re-probe disks that are managed by hald-addon-storage since that
will result in a double-probe and data corruption. In particular, this
fixes a problem with CD unmounting when ATAPICAM is enabled. [3]
