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
- science/elmer-matc
- science/elmer-meshgen2d
- science/elmerfront
- science/elmerpost
= use x86_64 as ARCH
- devel/g-wrap
= other changes
- print/magicfilter
GNU_CONFIGURE -> HAS_CONFIGURE since it's not generated by autoconf

PR: ports/90371
---snip---
The security/nmap port (currently at 3.48, but previous versions also
had this problem) triggers a bug in GCC 3.3.1 on FreeBSD/sparc64 which
causes the compilation of the port to fail.
The GCC bug itself is know and AFAIK Thomas Moestl (tmm@freebsd.org)
tried to get a fix for it in upstream GCC. However, I didn't see an
entry in the release notes of GCC 3.3.2 that would suggest that it has
been fixed there.
Another port that has a workaround for this particular GCC bug is e.g.
x11/XFree86-4-libraries (files/patch-XRes.c).
