FreeBSD sysutils : dar

A full featured command-line backup tool, aimed for disks

 dar is a shell command that backs up directory trees and files. It has been
tested under Linux, Windows, Solaris, FreeBSD, NetBSD, MacOS X and several
other systems, it is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Since version 2.0.0 an Application Interface (API) is available, opening the
way for external/independent Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) like kdar.
This API relies on the libdar library, which is the core part of DAR
programs; as such, the API is released under the GPL. Consequently, to use
the API, your program must be released under the GPL as well.

Apply a big libtool patch to allow porters to use the libtool installed by
the libtoolX ports instead of the one included with each port.  Ports that
set USE_LIBTOOL_VER=X will now use the ports version of libtool instead of
the included version.  To restore previous behavior, use the new macro,
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER.  Both macros accept the same argument: a libtool version.

For example, to use the ports version of libtool-1.5, add the following to
your Makefile:

USE_LIBTOOL_VER=        15

To use the included version of libtool with extra hacks provided by
libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile:

USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER=    15

With this change, ports that had to add additional libtool hacks to prevent
.la files from being installed or to fix certain threading issues can now
delete those hacks (after appropriate testing, of course).

Whoa there, boy, that's a mighty big commit y'all have there...

Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".

For ports-in-waiting:

	USE_LIBTOOL=YES		->	USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
	USE_AUTOCONF=YES	->	USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
	USE_AUTOMAKE=YES	->	USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14

Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.

sorely disappointed.
