which officially fixes the setuid security exploit by the vendors.
Additionally, from the PR:
* adds in distribution patches to allow it to interoperate
with libtiff-3.5.5 (the current version in the ports tree),
and replace an original FreeBSD patch.
* includes security patches (replacements of 'strcpy' and
'sprintf', primarily), mostly based on patches originally
submitted by Alex Langer [1] for 4.0pl2 and not yet commited,
although some new work was done too.
[1] I don't think, that these were my patches but those submitted by
John Holland <john@zoner.org> in PR 19180.
* Fixes some issues with the configure/setup scripts introduced
since the previous version.
* Additionally, original FreeBSD patches from 4.0pl2 were
merged in where they were not addressed by anything else.
(except the I18N patch, sorry).
I removed the FORBIDDEN line since there are at least no obvious security
concerns left.

(1) pkg_* can't handle absolute paths, so use two @cwd's and relative paths
throughout.
(2) pkg_* can't handle FIFOs, so use mkfifo to create it and rm to delete it.
(3) pkg_* can't handle empty directories, so create them with mkdir.
(4) the @mode/@owner/@group directives don't appear to work so use @exec
to set all the modes.
A new import based on Sam Leffler's Hylafax V3.0pl0. Flexfax is now obsolete.
Import includes & applies the base patch Sam posted on the flexfax mail list
(mail list is still called flexfax, though the package is called Hylafax).
Sam declared our ports/comms/flexfax to be obsolete (over a year old).
Sometime after the CD release, I will post a proposal to remove
ports/comms/flexfax.
I will maintain ports/comms/hylafax as I need fax capability.
Thanks to Asami Satoshi for suggested improvements,
I leave him to `bless' this port by adding the final
comms/Makefile: SUBDIR += hylafax
Until he does that, any mistakes I may have made shouldnt break any makes :-)
I've undoubtedly screwed something up, somewhere, its a big port (30M inc bins),please test, Oh... and "Share & Enjoy" :-)
