textproc/libxml2, textproc/libxslt: vulnerable
Note that libxslt is vulnerable, unfixed, and without maintainer.
Two of four vulnerabilities have been fixed.
Note that libxml2 in our ports is vulnerable and there is no upstream
release fixing these bugs, they need cherry-picks.
Deprecate textproc/xmlto and textproc/minixmlto,
which both depend on the unmaintained and vulnerable libxslt.
I have filed https://pagure.io/xmlto/issue/15 to ask the xmlto
upstream to switch to different XML/XSLT libraries.
Two issues are undisclosed and do not seem to have a CVE assigned yet.

textproc/minixmlto: update to 0.0.7
minixmlto gained the ability to use docbook2mdoc when possible instead
of using xsl toolchain.
In this version this is off by default and activable vis

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.

Add minixmlto which is a very tiny script that is a minimalistic alternative to
xmlto
The goal is not to support every features of xmlto, but just the strict minimum
in order to prevent potential circular dependencies, and have a possibility to
greatly reduce the number of dependencies
