Dear porters,
I just committed a change that affects all ports that use GNU_CONFIGURE
(include those who use autotools).
The default syntax for CONFIGURE_TARGET in CONFIGURE_ARGS is updated
to use the new syntax for autoconf > 2.13. That is, we will use
--build=3D${CONFIGURE_TARGET} where applicable. Ports no longer
need to change CONFIGURE_TARGET.
Thanks,
Rong-En Fan

Log:
Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure scrip=
t.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=3DCONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
=20
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build=3D'' prefix.
=20
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.

Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=3Dgnometarget is now an no-op
