After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.
Now texinfo is not in base on any of the supported version of FreeBSD
it is possible to proceed to this move and it is easier to do than
the manpage change.
Other benefit than consistency are less patching: all build tools but
cmake are expecting info files to be under share/info and cmake (patched here)
was having an exception for BSD so the patch makes FreeBSD case less
specific for them

- Update all ports that currently use a custom definition
- Also add a link to a list of certified copyfree licenses

With this single change many ports now build for the relatively new (in
12-current) powerpc.powerpcspe arch target. Additional changes will be needed
on a port-by-port basis.

There are a few ports that check for long file name support during
configuration, but the conftest actually modifies $LOCALBASE/lib when
the port is built by the root user. By caching the result (yes), the
test is avoiding and so is the consequential file system violation.
(The synth test option can detect this FS violation.)

In order to make ports like cloudabi-binutils work (PR 200968), we need
to bump up these scripts to the latest upstream version. An exp-run
seems to indicate that this causes no regressions.

The GNAT Modified General Public Licence is an older license that is
commonly used with Ada programs, specifically to address legal quirks
with the Ada generics feature.
It is meant to be used as "multi" licence in combination with GPL or
GPLv2. It is not typically seen combined with GPLv3 to my knowledge.
Approved by: portmgr (bapt)
The GCC ports either do not have any license defined, or they are defined
as GPLv3 which is not completely correct. The runtime libraries in the
FSF-issued GCC releases have a standard exception to the GPLv3 license.
In order to properly reflect this, the GCC ports can define a "multi"
license, GPLv3 and GPLv3RLE, which are both in effect.

This mimics the layout of the base system (see hier(7)) and will be used by
ports to install tests into. This directory will later be hooked into the
/usr/tests test suite so that all tests can be run transparently in one go.
