Libeio is a full-featured asynchronous I/O library for C, modelled in
similar style and spirit as libev.
Features include: asynchronous read, write, open, close, stat, unlink,
fdatasync, mknod, readdir etc. (basically the full POSIX API), sendfile
(native on Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, FreeBSD, emulated everywhere else),
read-ahead (emulated where not available). It is fully event-library
agnostic and can easily be integrated into any event-library (or used
standalone, even in polling mode).
*/*: De-orbit alias.mk
Mk/Uses/alias.mk was an attempt for compat with DPorts, but has rotted.
This feature was never documented in the PHB, so there is no work to
be done by the docs@ team.
Nothing against DragonFly, but if DPorts still needs FreeBSD 9
support, they really should work that out with upstream projects.
Ultimately, we don't need to keep carrying this outdated feature that
doesn't affect us.
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.

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.

Github cleanup.
- Use the version tag instead of commit hash when they're the same.
- Remove unnneeded variables.
- Simplify go- ports when possible.
- Various fixes.

Add USES=alias to several ports
Alias is a new USES tool that allows DragonFly to masquerade as FreeBSD
by setting CFLAGS+= -D__FreeBSD__. For some ports, this fixes the build
without the need for additional patches.
