Oracle Berkeley DB is a family of open source embeddable databases
that allows developers to incorporate within their applications a
fast, scalable, transactional database engine with industrial grade
reliability and availability. As a result, customers and end-users
will experience an application that simply works, reliably manages
data, can scale under extreme load, but requires no ongoing database
administration. As a developer, you can focus on your application and
be confident that Oracle Berkeley DB will manage your persistence
needs.

Berkeley DB cleanup, remove versions 4.0 ... 4.7.
- Mk/bsd.database.mk rewrite, new default to db5.
- db6 is eligible by default only if installed on the system.
- Bump PORTREVISION of all ports that directly depend on BerkeleyDB or
where USE_BDB is found in the port's directory
- Patch a few ports such that they will pick up or work with newer
versions.
- Add UPDATING entry
- Drive-by format fix for pks
- Drop BerkeleyDB option from mail/popular for now, requires more work.
- Exp-run logs linked from the PR below.
- Ports that do not build (IGNORE, BROKEN, etc.) have pro-forma changes
for new Berkeley DB, but are untested.
NOTE: please read UPDATING and the Wiki page before proceeding!

multiple: reset gslin's maintainer
By request of Gea-Suan Lin <gslin@gslin.org> - reset ports to ports@FreeBSD.
Gea-Suan Lin's work is much appreciated.
Approved by: portmgr (implicit) (not really, skipping NO_STAGE check)
- Fix build on FreeBSD 10. Apply manual fix as the configure script is
outside of WRKSRC and the WITH_FBSD10_FIX knob doesn't work in this
case.
Approved by: portmgr (miwi)
- Update to 4.6.21.3
- Thanks for the help by Panagiotis Christias <p.christias _ noc.ntua.gr>
