Remove jseger and torstenb from maintainership of their ports, they have been inactive for too long Approved by: will5872a89c3b

Finally nail the nasty autoconf habit of leaving ${TMPDIR}/acin.* turds lying around in certain circumstances.d0db855ae0Add WWW: lined16e953187
m4(1) was stripping the [] to leave *.Cc in my previous fix and this was causing problems with a few ports determining that .c was the suffix for executables. The fix is to expand it to '*.c | *.C' so that m4(1) doesn't try to outsmart us. Noticed by: George W. Dinolt <gdinolt@pacbell.net>de8800ab88
Teach autoconf about .C files so that it doesn't inadvertently think .C is the extension for executables.b475e9b6bc

Use RUN_DEPENDS instead of EXEC_DEPENDS, as it is not (technicall) necessary to have /usr/local/bin/gm4 just to build this port. However, the configure script would find /usr/bin/m4 if /usr/local/bin/gm4 isn't there, so tell it to use tha latter via CONFIGURE_ENV.51b84d9321
