* Add considerable documentation about available variables, their

  meaning and default settings [1]

* Add PATCH_DEPENDS and EXTRACT_DEPENDS, and convert various
  internal bsd.port.mk dependencies to use them [2]

* Set the default MAN3PREFIX to ${PREFIX}/lib/perl5/${PERL_VERSION}
  for perl ports, removing the need to define this locally in every
  port [3]

* Replace perllocal.pod with perllocal.pod-${PORTNAME} so that perl
  ports can be made to clean up after themselves properly [4]

* Properly quote filenames in the security-check target.  This
  unbreaks package registration for ports that install filenames
  containing metacharacters [5]

* Use "cat /dev/null >" instead of "rm -f" in the makesum target so
  that the file retains the correct ownership and permissions [6]

* Add a USE_PACKAGE_DEPENDS knob that may be set in the environment or
  make.conf, and which attempts to use existing local packages to
  satisfy port dependencies, instead of building them from ports [7]

* Add a first attempt at fetch-required and fetch-required-list
  targets which fetch or print all the distfiles that are required to
  build the port.  Dependencies that are already installed need not
  have their distfiles listed, and will not be reported [8].

  This needs more work, because ports that do things like:

    BUILD_DEPENDS=  ${NONEXISTENT}:${PORTSDIR}/foo/bar:blee

  will not have their distfiles listed and will therefore fail to fetch
  completely.  The target needs to be changed to include distfiles for
  ports that have a target listed
