 Okay, I'll takeover chinese/tin.
 
 For the issues that ache@ mentioined:
 
 1. please check the news/tin part of this patch, and I'll take care of
    chinese/tin part of it.
 
 2. --with-mime-default-charset will set the default value of MM_CHARSET,
    it is safe to change its value at compile-time or run-time (by setenv).
 
    Unlike --disable-mime-strict-charset, set --with-mime-default-charset
    to charset other than US-ASCII will NOT break other national charsets.
 
    Even add MM_CHARSET variable in news/tin, it's still set to US-ASCII
    by default, but use "?=" to allow users or slave ports to overwrite it.
 
    chinese/tin need to change the default value of MM_CHARSET to Big5,
    otherwise it can't display asciiart correctly. chinese/tin can't work
    with ncurses either. That's why I need to add optional variables with
    default values for "charset" and "screen".
 
 3. It might be reasonable to put TIN_ prefixes to all variables, however,
    some of these variables are commonly used (EDITOR, MM_CHARSET), it will
    be convenient if we can utilize them.
 
    The other WITH/WITHOUT variables can be replaced by using OPTIONS.
    The config result will be saved in /var/db/ports and only apply to the
    port which save it. I myself prefer this alternative way.
 
    But if you insist, add TIN_ prefixes to these variables (TIN_EDITOR,
    TIN_SCREEN, TIN_MM_CHARSET, WITHOUT_TIN_PGP_GPG ...) are okay too.
