Purge 3 outdated, old-and-busted, versions of automake as part of
ongoing cleanup to find sanity in the world.

Feature safe:   yes (surprisingly)

Autotools update.   Read ports/UPDATING 20100915 for details.

Approved by:    portmgr (for Mk/bsd.port.mk part)
Tested by:      Multiple -exp runs

11:21 linimon 

Reassign the autotools-related ports to a new mailing list,
autotools@FreeBSD.org.  This is for individuals willing to put in
the hard work to generate patches and work with portmgr as we put
them through -exp runs and work through port breakage that they
create.  (A huge number of ports depend on these, so -exp runs are
required.)

Thanks to aDe@ for all the thankless work he's done over the years
to tame these beasts.

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.

To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.

To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.

Changes to Mk/*:
 - Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
 - Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
 - USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op

Changes to individual ports, other than removing the CONFIGURE_TARGET hack:

= pkg-plist changed (due to the ugly CONFIGURE_TARGET prefix in * executables)
  - comms/gnuradio
  - science/abinit
  - science/elmer-fem
  - science/elmer-matc
  - science/elmer-meshgen2d
  - science/elmerfront
  - science/elmerpost

= use x86_64 as ARCH
  - devel/g-wrap

= other changes
  - print/magicfilter
    GNU_CONFIGURE -> HAS_CONFIGURE since it's not generated by autoconf

Total # of ports modified:  1,027
Total # of ports affected: ~7,000 (set GNU_CONFIGURE to yes)

Do the PORTREVISION correctly (ie: old value + 1).  Sigh.  More coffee.
Or, perhaps, less beer.  Nah.  Unthinkable.

Still no functional changes.

Fix PORTREVISION as per krismail.  These two did previously exist way

Set some DEPRECATED and EXPIRATION_DATE knobs to indicate overall intention

relevant USE_* knobs, but will be as soon as bsd.autotools.mk comes into
existence.

PORTREVISION bump owing to pointy hat sitting on aDe's head.

away from using the version number twice.

Unbreak automake17, base on work from Rui Lopes <rui@ruilopes.com>

prepare for real port

02:44 seanc 

Correct ports that were abusing the FORBIDDEN variable and replace with
either IGNORE or BROKEN.

Since there seems to be some confusion, for the record:

BROKEN          is reserved for ports that don't work.  This will prevent
                users from installing the port, but please note that
                ports marked as BROKEN will still be built by bento
IGNORE          is reserved for ports that should not be built for one
                reason or another (including bento).  Users and bento
                will not build ports marked as IGNORE.
FORBIDDEN       is reserved for security breakages only!!!  Only mark a
                port as FORBIDDEN if there is a security issue with the
                port at the time.

Add explicit ignore assignments to try to get bento to leave this shit alone.

1. Update version to 1.7.1.
2. Rewrote pkg-comment and pkg-descr files.
3. Marked pkg-plist file as not done.
4. Made do-build and do-install targets indicating that this port is
   not at all ready to even be looked at. The repocopy was a placeholder
