Robert Clausecker e69a1817a6 devel/schilybase: update to 2022-09-18
- point MASTER_SITES to new upstream
 - split bosh from sysutils/schilyutils into new port shells/bosh
   - stop installing pfbosh, a SunOS-only feature
   - install jsh as jbosh to avoid a conflict
   - patch shell names in man pages
 - point WWW to subproject-specific sites if available
 - misc/schilytools: deprecate man2html component
 - devel/schilybase: add missing file to pkg-plist
 - make test suite work better
   - do not pass INS_*BASE/DESTDIR to smake tests
   - account for devel/sccs placing files in /tmp
   - make sh/tests/common/test-common find bosh after
     we patched out the hardlink to sh
   - Test suite passes on armv7 except for archivers/star.
     Will have to investigate further.
 - sysutils/schilyutils: add vctags command
   I forgot about that one when I made the port initially.
   The ctags link is not installed to avoid conflicts.

The Schily Bourne Shell was derived from the Bourne Shell sources from
OpenSolaris. The Schily Bourne Shell is actively maintained and
enhanced on a regular base. It can be compiled into three variants:
Non-POSIX SVr4/OpenSolaris variant (obosh)
The portable but not extended variant obosh allows script
portability testing. Most scripts that run in the old Schily
Bourne Shell will run with any Unix shell that is still in use
since 1990.
Minimal POSIX compliant variant (pbosh)
This version implements the minimal set of POSIX features and
this version is always in strict POSIX mode. The features are
similar to the features in dash, but since pbosh supports multi
byte characters, it is really POSIX compliant. The pbosh
variant allows script portability testing aginst the POSIX
feature set.
The POSIX compliant extended variant (bosh)
This version has been verified to work as the system shell on
Gentoo Linux and OpenSolaris (SchilliX). The enhanced Schily
Bourne Shell (bosh) implements many features that are missing
in the OpenSolaris Bourne Shell listed above.
