Change all www.freebsd.org/~user references to people.FreeBSD.org/~user, as the days of the former are numbered.

Commit #3/4 to enforce caps, no period.

FWIW, checkout of these things took 5+hrs, staying on the local
.freebsd.org net w/o hitting the 'net at all.

Fix Makefiles to work with new bsd.port.mk.  Mostly just replacing ${COMPRESS_MAN} so they will at least work.  I will come back later and get rid of all the .if !defined(NOMANCOMPRESS) stuff.
