* portupgrade: Change the timing of the invocation of the
beforebuild command so that "portupgrade -B'cvs update' foo" works.

* portversion: Fix the implication of a '*'. (portversion -v did
nothing ;)

Ignore the difference of the name parts when it compares the

- Use Dir.entries(dir).each instead of Dir.glob(dir) so it does not
hit the just installed packages.
- Add -p option. [make package as well when each port is installed]

It upgrades ports without reinstalling dependent packages by directly
modifying the package info recorded in the files under /var/db/pkg.
e.g.
portupgrade gtk
portupgrade -cC gnome\*
It currently has many design flaws (to me at least) but I am releasing
this because it's functionally stable enough to use. (I believe.. ;)
Use with care, at your own risk.
I'm removing IGNOREFILES because I cannot get a clue about which files are
updated on the webmin site. For example, if any module is updated
twice, it will be listed only once on the site's updates page.
The port will always work because the file's md5 is ignored, but I don't
know when I should bump PORTREVISION. Since the default behavior of the
port is to install the official version without updates, I prefer to have
a md5 mismatch every now and then, so that PORTREVISION can be bumped and
webmin users know when they _actually_ have to upgrade the port.
No user visible changes, so no PORTREVISION bump.
significant improvements include telling you where it thinks the file system
starts when scanning for superblocks... support to compile (untested) under
Solaris, support for reading from raw devices, support for non-mmap'able
files (which also means you can use it on >2gig file systems under x86)...
arbitrary file system start possitions (you can use da0c to access filesystems
that don't begin a block 0), print out and validity checking of arbitrary
superblocks (no longer just the primary superblock)...
and possibly more...
