JPEG XR is an approved ISO/IEC International standard (its official
designation is ISO/IEC 29199-2).
JPEG XR started its life in Microsoft Research. It publicly first appeared
as the HD Photo format in Windows Vista.
For web developers, JPEG XR has a large number of interesting features, see
the table below. Some of these are big advantages over other image formats
like JPEG, PNG, OpenEXR, and TIFF.
- Better Compression (40% smaller than JPEG)
- Lossless Mode (better compression than PNG)
- Alpha Channel (compress color lossy and alpha losslessly)
- Extended Bitdepth (supports 8-, 16-, and 32-bit/channel)
- Progressive Decode
- Advanced Decoding Features (tile-based layout, for efficient
region-of-interest access.)
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.

Fix build with src r354909 applied.
The referenced change made NO_INSTALLLIB, NO_MAN, and NO_PROFILE into
errors causing these ports that declare them and use the FreeBSD make
infrastructure as part of their build to fail.
When the offending variables occur in a BSD Makefile, NO_MAN becomes
MAN= and NO_INSTALLLIB and NO_PROFILE become MK_INSTALLLIB=no and
MK_PROFILE=no respectively. When declared in the environment they
become WITHOUT_<FOO>.
Fix handling of (some of) the warnings, by fixing them
at the sources, rather than disabling them on command-line.
The disabling was not working with gcc.

Mark some ports failing on power64. In cases where the error message
was a stub, provide a real one.
While here, pet portlint.
