Add several sites to, and remove several from, MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE.
The ones I removed had been flagged by Fenner's port survey, but
I also checked them myself. I removed ftp.jaring.my because it is
only a partial mirror. I added metalab's HTTP service at the bottom
of the list.

The RingServer Project is one of the largest FTP/HTTP mirror site
networks in Japan.

They mirror many freesoftware archives listed in the following page:

Hereby the following MASTER_SITE entries are now powered by
RingServers.
MASTER_SITE_XCONTRIB
MASTER_SITE_XFREE
MASTER_SITE_GNU
MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN
MASTER_SITE_TEX_CTAN
MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE
MASTER_SITE_KDE
I believe this would greatly reduce the traffic from Japan to US and
European servers.
To Japanese users:
Please configure your MASTER_SORT and/or MASTER_SORT_REGEX properly to
use those mirrors instead of foreign ones! :>

XFree86 nows offers http download access! This is a big story for those
who cannot download via ftp access because of proxy/firewall concerns.

The vast majority of the site hunting was my own work. However, KATO-san
submitted a number of Afterstep/Windowmaker sites I missed.

INSTALL_SHLIBS is set, ldconfig is automatically called from
post-install and necessary @exec and @unexec lines are added to
PLIST.

(1a) Add
PREFIX=%D LOCALBASE=${LOCALBASE} X11BASE=${X11BASE}
to PLIST_SUB. These are needed by INSTALL_SHLIBS, but also could
be useful in general.
(2) Move master/mirror site definitions to bsd.sites.mk and include it
from bsd.port.mk. Open bsd.sites.mk to other committers.

(2a) Add MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE.
Submitted by: sobomax (who wrote SORCEFORGE, but I assume that's a typo :)
(2b) Move MASTER_SITE_LOCAL from ".../ports/distfiles/LOCAL_PORTS/" to
".../ports/local-distfiles/%SUBDIR%/" which will be mirrored from
peoples' ~user/public_distfiles on freefall. Add two mirrors
(Japan and Germany).

(3) Simplify definition of PKGBASE since it can now be defined as
simply ${PKGNAMEPREFIX}${PORTNAME}${PKGNAMESUFFIX}, instead of
sed'ing out the version number from ${PKGNAME}.

(4) Remove unnecessary targets prefix and mtree-file, which can be
implemented as "make -V PREFIX" and "make -V MTREE_FILE",
respectively. Don't define MTREE_FILE when NO_MTREE is set so
"make -V MTREE_FILE" won't print out anything.
(5) Various minor typo and grammar fixes.
(6) Define NONEXISTENT?=/nonexistent. This will help quiet portlint
warnings, among other things.
