This should make possible the long-needed "modularization" -- making our browser ports dependant on devel/nspr instead of building their own. This could not be done before, because the standalone release was hopelessly out of date... The new release incorporates all code _fixes_ required by FreeBSD (hence the removal of most of the pr-patches). >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Please find the diff at http://aldan.algebra.com:8015/~mi/nspr-update.diff It now compiles cleanly with -Wall -- on amd64. For the purposes of QA on our different platforms, the port also builds and tries to use vendors self-tests -- see the comments around "test" target. I had no problems building nss against the new nspr. Please, allow committing. Thanks. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
