Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
ColdSync is a robust, extensible, portable tool for synchronizing PalmOS devices (PalmPilot et al.) with a Unix workstation. It also supports USB connections, under FreeBSD 4.0 and higher. It runs without a GUI, and therefore allows you to sync without running X. ColdSync is extensible through the use of conduits, which allow it to share information with other applications.

ColdSync 2.2.5 fails to work with devices running PalmOS 4.0 and above,
if (and only if) there is a password set on the Palm. The Palm claims
that the desktop software is too old and should be upgraded. The patch
below (essentially stolen from ColdSync 3.0) makes ColdSync claim that
it supports DLP 1.3.

After many hours of fiddling with ugen and uvisor and coldsync and such,
I discovered that the only reason coldsync's ugen support doesn't work
out of the box for a Treo 270 (HandSpring Visor-based phone) is that
it uses a very low resolution sleep (one second) while waiting for USB
devices to appear in "transient" mode.  Due to this, it almost always
misses the first packet in the HotSync, which comes from the Palm, and
after five seconds the entire process would time out.

Decrease the amount of time that is spent sleeping while waiting for USB
devices to appear so that it works every time.

(You probably do not want to try this without ugen(4) from yesterday
 which will NOT panic when the USB device goes away before programs
 with it open have closed their references.)

Upgrade to the latest stable version -- 2.2.5, which supports Palms in
addition to Handspring, so there is no need for patch-palm any more.

Remove the Perl parts of this port. They will be turned into the new
p5-coldsync. Now, that the port no longer uses Perl, switch back to
REINPLACE and rephrase the regexps, so they work (\S was a perlism).

Make patch-in6 a little nicer by making coldsync.c define _POSIX_SOURCE
as 200112 -- the only way to cause netinet/in.h to include
netinet6/in6.h, apparently.

Revert the PERL-to-REINPLACE conversion attempts. They were never
finished, despite several related commits, but, most importantly, the
port uses PERL anyway... This prevented USB detection -- fixed by
this committer in April. Pointy hats available upon request...

Make sure __BSD_VISIBLE is defined -- too many of _our headers_
trip over u_int et al without that.

Include netinet6/in6.h and force it in by defining what it is looking
for. The "official" way of doing it -- simply through the netinet/in.h
does not work. May be, there is no __POSIX_VISIBLE in case of
__BSD_VISIBLE? Fixes to files/patch-in6 are welcome!

The last two fixed compile on -current, justifying this commit without
explicit approval.
