Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd with a focus on security and
reliability.
Among others, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog
over TCP, SSL, TLS and RELP, writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle,
and many more), email alerting, fully configurable output formats (including
high-precision timestamps),the ability to filter on any part of the syslog
message, on-the-wire message compression, and the ability to convert text
files to syslog.
It is a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to work with the same
configuration file syntax. Its advanced features make it suitable for
enterprise-class, encryption protected syslog relay chains while at the same
time being very easy to setup for the novice user.

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
- 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

Deprecate md5 in favour of sha256 checksums. md5 checksums will no longer
be generated or checked, and will be silently ignored for now. Also,
generalize the MD5_FILE macro to DISTINFO_FILO.

Version 4.x.x is still in devel stage and can show stability issues.
