Purge WANT_{LIBTOOL,AUTOCONF,AUTOMAKE}_RUN

The versioned autotools are now strictly for building other ports in the tree.
Likewise, the gnu- autotools are for runtime dependencies for IDEs, and others,
where unmodified cross-platform capabilities are desired.

All that we see or seem, is but a dream, within a dream.

Take back maintainership.  I'll be scouring the PR database shortly,
if I miss any, or someone beats me to it, please feel free to reassign
appropriately.

Relinquish maintainership.  I no longer have the time, energy, or interest to look after these things any more.

To whomever picks these up, I salute you.  I'll reset the relevant
PRs to ports-bugs in a couple of weeks if no-one has taken over
maintainership.

Farewell, autotool hell.

Ade Lovett (ade) · 1.5 · as devel/libtool15
Repoint to known-good copies of libtool distfiles, prior to the FSF ftp.gnu.org compromise and resultant trashing of lots of files.

Why they haven't gotten things back into a proper state yet is an
entirely different question.

libtool uber-patch

* kill devel/libtool and move to devel/libtool13, upgrading to 1.3.5
* upgrade repo-copied devel/libtool14 to 1.4.3
* break out libltdl into its own separate port
* move to version-numbered binaries/scripts (ie: there is *no* 'libtool'
  any more -- USE_LIBTOOL and USE_LIBTOOL_VER are your friends)

Maxim Sobolev (sobomax) · 1.3.4_4
Due to popular demant into each port which might be inserted into dependency list by bsd.port.mk insert anti foot-shooting device, which prevents infinite fork loop when the user defines corresponding USE_XXX in global make.conf, command line or environment.

Similar devices should probably be inserted into ports that might be inserted
into dependency list by others bsd.foo.mk files (bsd.ruby.mk, bsd.python.mk
and so on.)

Stage a mini-coup, and borrow these ports from portmgr@ for a while, since I'm doing most of the updating, and am working on a port/Mk/bsd.<gnublah>.mk to move some cruft around.
