JC is a Java virtual machine implementation that converts class
files into C source files using the Soot Java bytecode analysis
framework, compiles them with GCC, and loads them using a built-in
ELF object file loader. JC utilizes the GNU Classpath class library
and provides a fairly complete Java runtime including sophisticated
optimizations to increase runtime performance. JC also includes a
bytecode interpreter, and supports execution in either or mix ed
modes.
Although JC has good interpreter performance, JC doesn't try to be
fast in every situation. Instead, JC focuses on this question: how
fast can we go if we know some or all of the class files ahead of
time? The answer is: very fast! Optimizations that are just too
complex and expensive to perform at runtime are instead performed
at code generation time. JC's code generator is written in Java,
using the powerful Soot bytecode analysis framework. When combined
with the proven power of GCC's C optimizer the results are impressive.
As an additional benefit, JC contains very little architecture-specific
code and is highly portable.

- Add LDFLAGS to CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV (as it was done with LDFLAGS)
- Fix all ports that add {CPP,LD}FLAGS to *_ENV to modify flags instead

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

Add NO_PACKAGE since this apparently takes an enormous amount of RAM to
build, and has never built successfully on the package cluster since the
update last year.

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
Light blue touch-paper. Run.
New port.
