	Not relevant.  Just an up to date ports tree.

>Description:

	(1) kill devel/autoconf257, replacing it with devel/autoconf259
	(2) kill devel/automake17, replacing it with devel/automake18
	(3) kill devel/libtool14, replacing with either libtool13 or 15
	(4) minor bsd.autotools.mk cleanup
	(5) add a couple of new helper variables to bsd.autotools.mk
	    that were being generated by port Makefiles
	(6) clean up libtool15 with a patch from marcus@

>How-To-Repeat:
	N/A

>Fix:
	Grab http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/patches/autotools.patch
	cd /usr/ports (or wherever)
	sh /where/it/is/autotools.patch
	<code/input/activities to reproduce the problem (multiple lines)>

	Whilst not many ports are affected by these changes, a 4-exp
	run should be done on this to verify no fallout before commit.
