- Remove conditional checks for FreeBSD 5.x and older |

Turn
IGNORE= "foo now contained in the base system"
into
IGNORE= "is now contained in the base system"
since the code which prints this string prefices it with the package
name.

Now that bsdiff is part of the base system and conditional IGNORE=
lines have been added to misc/bsdiff, make the dependency here
conditional.

[MAINTAINER UPDATE] security/freebsd-update
If `freebsd-update cron` fails due to a lack of internet
connection, two emails will be sent -- one with the error
message from fetch(1), and the other from freebsd-update
reporting that patches could not be downloaded.
This patch corrects this mis-behaviour and causes a single
email to be sent in such an event; this will be included
in a future version of the distfile.

Now that I've had a chance to test it, add sparc64 to the list of approved
architectures for FreeBSD Update.
Excuse for committing without a ports commit bit: I'm the maintainer, and
I didn't want to open a PR for a one-word change. |

Remove for-i386-only. This builds fine on other platforms and appears it
would work just fine if someone were offering security update bits.

update security/freebsd-update: 1.3 -> 1.4
- Much cleaner code (FreeBSD Update is now a shell script, rather than a
huge ugly makefile),
- Better performance,
- Reduced bandwidth usage when no updates are available,
- Warnings about files which have been affected by security updates, but
cannot be updated because they have been modified locally,
- An "intrusion detection" mode which compares every file which can be
installed as part of a RELEASE against a (signed) database of known good
hashes.
