x11-toolkits/py-tkinter is otherwise built separately, ie disabled
in the main Python distribution build, due to circular (build)
dependencies with Python itself in lang/tk*. Since this Python
version is never default anymore, having been EOLed for years among
other things, it is safe to re-add _tkinter as part of the main
distribution build. Also update pkg-message to reflect extension
module ports unavailability.
This is to benefit the only remaining consumer, games/renpy, as
x11-toolkits/py-tkinter transitions to Python 3+ only. The relevant
OPTION has been removed as having _tkinter always present makes the
option a no-op.

This was fixed in an earlier commit but an arbitrary OSVERSION was used
to check the side effects in exp-run. As there is a proper OSVERSION now
this patch fixes the OSVERSION.

Commit b7f05445c0 has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries
of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic
attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than
one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the
Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr
files in order to preserve them.
There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These
ports will not be touched in this commit.
The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port
Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as
deprecated.

A single close(fd) syscall is cheap, but when MAXFDS (maximum file
descriptor number) is high, the loop calling close(fd) on each file
descriptor can take several milliseconds.
The default value of subprocess.Popen "close_fds" parameter changed to True
in Python 3. Compared to Python 2, close_fds=True can make Popen 10x
slower: see bpo-37790 [1]
The present workaround on FreeBSD to improve performance is to load and
mount the fdescfs kernel module, but this is not enabled by default.
This change adds minimum viable (and upstreamable) closefrom(2) syscall
support to Python's subprocess and posix modules, improving performance
significantly for loads that involve working with many processes, such as
diffoscope, ansible, and many others.
For additional optimizations, upstream recently (3.8) landed posix_spawn(2)
support [3] and has stated that they will adopt close_range(2) after Linux
merges it [4]. Linux/FreeBSD developers are already collaborating on
ensuring compatible implementations, with FreeBSD's implementation pending
in D21627. [5]

ports r393217 via bug 200622 [1] originally set MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes due to
incorrect uses of recursive make [2], causing intermittent build failures when
run with multiple jobs (-jN).
Upstream committed a fix for the issue in default (3.6, at the time), 3.5 and
2.7 which are now contained in all released lang/python?? port versions. 3.4 did
not receieve a backport merge.
lang/python3.5+ ports inadvertently inherited MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes, via
repocopies from lang/python34 on their creation, when they were infact safe to
use with -j.
Remove MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE in all lang/python?? ports except python34 accordingly.

r462630 added OpenSSL include/library paths to CFLAGS/LIBS which caused
the _elementtree and pyexpat modules to fail to build. Adding paths to CFLAGS
is known to cause issues [1].
Accordingly:
- Switch to using CPPFLAGS for OpenSSL include/library paths (like NLS).
- Move the comment describing why this is necessary to the top of the port
with reasonable warning about what can happen and why.

Note that this is the **ports** approach for getting Python curses

into separate libncurses and libtinfo in base, for which an open

Apart from Python language ports, at least www/rtv and
sysutils/py-ranger ports have been tested to work correctly
(display Unicode) after this change.
