This is a package for doing integer arithmetic while using a different
base representation than normal. In base n arithmetic you have n
symbols which have a representation. I was going to call them
"glyphs", but being text strings they are not really. On Tye McQueen's
whimsical suggestion I settled on the name Math::Fleximal, the set of
text representations is called a "flex", and the representation of
individual digits are the "flecks". These names are somewhat
unofficial...
This allows you to do basic arithmetic using whatever digits you want,
and to convert from one to another.
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.

Delete the redundant 'regression-test:' target from those of my perl
ports that have it. There's a generic regression-test target
identical to these provided via 'USES=perl5'
Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the
