* This module contains several useful routines for interpolating
data sets and finding where a given value lies in a sorted list.
The first is a subroutine used to locate a position in an array
of values where a given value would fit using bisection. It has
been designed to be efficient in the common situation that it is
called repeatedly. The user can supply a different set of comparison
operators to replace the standard < and <=. For example, given a
list (1, 2, 5, 8, 15) and the number 9.5 it would return 3.
* The remaining routines all are related to interpolating sets of
(x,y) data pairs. They all take a list of (x,y) data pairs given
another x value, return a sensible y value using the list of (x,y)
data pairs. Three different interpolating functions are provided.
The first, called a constant interpolator, assumes that the
function being interpolated moves in non-linear jumps from one
value to another. The interpolated value for some value x is the
y value of the neighboring (x,y) to the left of the given x. The
second interpolator performs a linear interpolation between the
neighboring points. The third interpolator is called the robust
interpolator and interpolates a smooth curve between all of the
(x,y) pairs. To do the interpolation, it first calculates some
reasonable derivatives at the (x,y) pairs. The robust interpolator
can also use derivative information supplied by the user.
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.

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

search.cpan.org redirect reduction canonicalization project, pass 1:
URLs automatically rewritten from /search?dist=Foo or /dist/Foo
to /dist/Foo/ (note trailing slash). After a 2002(!) reorganization,
this is the preferred way to refer to modules on search.cpan.org.
