The Multi-Generator (MGEN) is open source software by the Naval Research
Laboratory (NRL) PROTocol Engineering Advanced Networking (PROTEAN)
Research Group. MGEN provides the ability to perform IP network
performance tests and measurements using UDP/IP traffic (TCP is currently
being developed).
The toolset generates real-time traffic patterns so that the network can
be loaded in a variety of ways. The generated traffic can also be
received and logged for analyses. Script files are used to drive the
generated loading patterns over the course of time. These script files can
be used to emulate the traffic patterns of unicast and/or multicast UDP/IP
applications. The receive portion of this tool set can be scripted to
dynamically join and leave IP multicast groups. MGEN log data can be used
to calculate performance statistics on throughput, packet loss rates,
communication delay, and more.
===> The following configuration options are available for mgen-5.1.1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
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.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.

Cleanup DIST* variables.
When appropriate:
- Try to use DISTVERSION{SUF,PRE}FIX
- Replace PORTNAME-PORTVERSION by DISTNAME
- Convert MASTER_SITES to use macros
- Other light cleanup

net category: Remove $PTHREAD_LIBS
openafs did not pass check-plist (pre-existing) so fixed and bumped.
Also, pkg-plist was sorted. mediatomb and spread also fail plist-checks
but they weren't fixed.
approved by: PTHREAD blanket
Remove indefinite articles and trailing periods from COMMENT, plus minor
COMMENT typos and surrounding whitespace fixes. A few Makefiles where not
included as they contain Latin-1 characters that break the Phabricator
workflow. Category N.

Convert GMAKE to MAKE_CMD
Please note that lots of invocation of MAKE_CMD here are wrong as they do not
properly respect MAKE_ENV and friends
With hat: portmgr
(I forgot to cvs add the new patches.)
- unmark IGNORE (fix PTHREAD_{CFLAGS, LIBS}) [1 (partly)]
- pet portlint:
* tab-instead-of-blank fixes
* use DISTNAME instead of single entry for DISTFILES
