>Description:

This is an updated port of Python-2.2.3, which includes some security
fixes-- disabling the rexec and Bastion modules.  I've included a
patch which teaches the regression testing which modules are normally
skipped on the "freebsd4" platform.  I needed to patch
/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk as well; diff is available in files/.

It looks like someone spent a lot of time including stuff for
backwards compatibility, so I left warnings from portlint in place:

OK: checking /usr/ports/lang/python/pkg-descr.
OK: checking Makefile.
WARN: use of DISTFILES with single file discouraged. distribution filename should be set by DISTNAME and EXTRACT_SUFX.
WARN: "LIB_DEPENDS" has to appear earlier in Makefile.
WARN: DISTFILES/DISTNAME affects WRKSRC. take caution when changing them.
OK: checking /usr/ports/lang/python/distinfo.
OK: checking /usr/ports/lang/python/files/patch-Lib-test-regrtest.py.
OK: checking /usr/ports/lang/python/files/patch-Modules-Setup.dist.
OK: checking /usr/ports/lang/python/files/patch-setup.py.
0 fatal errors and 3 warnings found.
