1) Update to 20000430 release snapshot.
2) Remove irrelevant (integrated into wine tree) patches.
3) Add new patch.
4) New MAINTAINER (pfeifer@dbai.tuwien.ac.at).
Gerald apparently overlooked installation, so I added a few files to the
install so people can actually run WINE; I also accounted for these files
in pkg/PLIST updating. Unfortunately, I could not test WINE because I
don't have USER_LDT in my kernel and I'm not adding it just now. :-)
Special thanks to Gerald for his help!

environment variables properly to run VMware, instead of installing it
as a symbolic link to ${PREFIX}/lib/vmware/bin/vmware.
Suggested by: Frank Mayhar <frank@exit.com>
Add $FreeBSD$ on the top of the Hints.FreeBSD file.
Add a link to the official VMware Product FAQ page.
- Remove post-install information from DESCR's.
- Replace /usr/local with ${PREFIX} in DESCR's and MESSAGE's.
- Remove unnecessary whitespace.
Pointed out by: portlint
- Mention full screen graphics mode works though it'll need due care not
to enter full screen text mode.
- Wording: vmware -> VMware
- Wording: tmpfs -> MFS
Some apps such as VMware for Linux would be happy with it.
The code was originally written by Vladimir N. Silyaev.
Note: It _includes_ Linux ioctl support, but basically it's
FreeBSD native stuff. I'm importing this into emulators
category for convevience' sake. Check it out.
- Correspond to VMware 2.0 Build 476 release (not beta)
- Support SMP kernel
- Install VMware tools floppies (for Windows and Linux)
- Add Hints.FreeBSD
- Mention my unofficial `rtc' port on post-install
- Raw disk may not work for the present
- etc.
Enjoy it!
- Make portlint satisfy
- Avoid creating files out of WRKDIR
- Remove the void directory "patch" (What ever was this?)
- Adjust whitespace
- Fix some ungrammatical wordings
- Modify COMMENT and DESCR
- Drop fakeprocfs support due to the import of Linux procfs to the base system
- Show MESSAGE after installation
- Change maintainer to the -emulation list because:
- Vladimir seems too busy or unreachable these days
- This port depends very much on Linux compatibility stuff
- Get it to check if the system has Linux procfs module and stop if not
