MUNGE (MUNGE Uid 'N' Gid Emporium) is an authentication service for creating and
validating credentials. It is designed to be highly scalable for use in an HPC
cluster environment. It allows a process to authenticate the UID and GID of
another local or remote process within a group of hosts having common users and
groups. These hosts form a security realm that is defined by a shared
cryptographic key. Clients within this security realm can create and validate
credentials without the use of root privileges, reserved ports, or
platform-specific methods.
security/munge: Fix rc script
The problem is that the munged_stop() function does not wait until the
kill completes. This can cause start to fail with "munged already
running" when the system is heavily loaded and kill is slower than
usual.

databases/and_others: Fix rc.d script comment
I found this typo while researching something else. It seems to have
propgated around the tree.

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.

security/munge: Use release archive and rearrange Makefile
Use release archive as suggested by Porters Handbook, this also
removes the need to use USES= autoreconf
Rearrange Makefile to follow Porters Handbook more closely

GOOGLE_CODE has gone away.
- If a port has another upstream, remove GOOGLE_CODE
- If a port only has GOOGLE_CODE mark it BROKEN
Some ports have a local mirror configured but for security reasons, it
is not considered upstream.

By default libtool replaces -export-symbols <file> with -retain-symbols-file
<file> on ELF systems, but this doesn't really do what -export-symbols is
meant to do. On GNU ELF systems it converts <file> to a simple version
script first and then uses -version-script instead of -retain-symbols-file.
Let USES=libtool patch libtool scripts to do this on all systems with GNU
ld(1).
Bump PORTREVISION on all ports where the build log contains -export-symbols.
audio/calf: This port builds a module that now exports only one function,
but it also builds a number of executables that link to this module and
expect to see other functions. Because it's already a bit dodgy to link to
a module (libtool warns about this) let the module continue to export only
one function and instead build an ordinary library from the same source that
the executables can link to. Fix a number of other issues in the same
