FreeBSD comms : birda

Bohlin's IrDA utilities, ported from NetBSD's pkgsrc

 A set of utilities to communicate with IrDA devices over an IrDA port
on a serial line.
Covers IrComm for connecting via PPP over cell phones
as well as several utilities to exchange data with PDAs.

These programs were written by Tommy Bohlin .
The port is more or less directly copied from Lennart Augustsson's
 NetBSD port.

[patch] comms/birda unexpire

	PR 88049 marked comms/birda as deprecated because the old
	distfile is no longer available on NetBSD's ftp server.
	This is because they now ship birda-1.1

	This patch updates the port to 1.1, unbreaking birda.  I
	use this port routinely and would hate to see it gone.

	I would be happy to be maintainer of birda if current
	maintainer has no interest maintaining it.

I'm no longer running FreeBSD; someone else will have to deal.

Remove stdio buffering even when not on a tty or pty: this prevents
