Description:

Composes and mails a complaint about inappropriate commercial use of usenet/e-mail. Sends complaint his/her provider by default, but destination is configurable. Can be used with as few as three keystrokes. A third-party forwarding service called Abuse.net is used for complaints to the offender's provider. This ensures that the best known complaint address is used. The first time you use Abuse.net, you will receive a message asking you to register. See www.abuse.net. This was created in the belief that a single, concise message is the most appropriate way to complain. Mail bombing (e-mailing megabytes of useless data) and public flaming (replying on usenet, causing your complaint to be duplicated on every machine in the network) are discouraged.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles

Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.

This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Approved by:		portmgr (tcberner)

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles

It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.

Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.

There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

mail: remove 'Created by' lines

Remove # $FreeBSD$ from Makefiles.

Fix usage of ${PERL5}.

${PERL5} points to a specific version of perl, say, perl5.22.1, it is
fine to use it in a ports Makefile to do Perly things, but ports using
it must use ${PERL}, that points to /usr/local/bin/perl so that if the
minor version is updated, the shebang keep working.

While there, make some ports use shebangfix, regen a few patches, and
bump PORTREVISION where a shebang went from PERL5 to PERL.
