These versions of automake are obsolete. See /usr/ports/UPDATING for
the 20101208 entry for how to deal with them.

Also obsolete. See the 20101204 entry.

See 20100811

xz is now part of the base system. See 20090921 todeal with it.

Some comments in-line, but you MUST read /us/ports/UPDATING when ports
upgrading ports, especially when it has been a long time since the
existing ports were installed.

When it has been this long, you might want to completely delete and
re-install all ports following the instructions in the portmaster man
page examples. This will assure that EVERYTHING is properly cleaned
up. No obsolete libraries, header files, data files, or anything else.
It's the 11 step process and please read the relevant example in its
entirety to make sure you don't waste too much time. If your system
has a very large number of ports installed, consider using the -P
option to use packages when they are available.

I do see some ports that might benefit from CPU specific
optimizations. If you feel that these are important, re-install these
after you finish the basic re-installation.
