Notable changes:
* Consolidation of IPv6 -- now only a single build supports both
IPv4 & IPv6, and removal of the IPv4 "only" code paths.
* File API and improvements to file processing for HTTP downloads
and email attachments via SMTP, POP, and IMAP to facilitate
broader file support
* Use of address space ID for tracking Frag & Stream connections
when it is available with the DAQ
* Logging of packet data that triggers PPM for post-analysis via
Snort event
* Decoding of IPv6 with PPPoE
This commit also includes a patch to snort.conf that was done by myself
with feedback from Markus. The snort.conf patch ensures that Snort will
load the latest Snort ruleset since the rule files have been reorganized
by upstream. It also excludes local.rules by default, since rule
managers like Oinkmaster skip that file when downloading rules.
Tested by Markus on i386 and sparc64, Rodolfo Gouveia on 5.2/amd64 with
his own snort.conf, and myself on amd64 and i386.

xl2tpd is an implementation of the Layer 2 Tunnelling Protocol (RFC 2661),
which works by opening a pseudo-tty for communicating with pppd.
L2TP allows you to tunnel PPP over UDP. Some ISPs use L2TP to tunnel user
sessions from dial-in servers (modem banks, ADSL DSLAMs) to back-end PPP
servers. Another important application is Virtual Private Networks where
the IPsec protocol is used to secure the L2TP connection (L2TP/IPsec,
RFC 3193).
* Save gid option with --save-session option
* Added --gid option
* Use 64 bits random bytes as GID
* Fixed BitfieldMan::getOffsetCompletedLength overflow on 32-bit systems
* Changed console readout, making it more compact
* Compact readout when more than 1 simultaneous downloads are going on
* Console color output
* Logger: Simplified console output and change level format in log
Ok benoit@
- Update to u6 via patchset from upstream bsd_port and u6 source from Oracle
- Copied u6 -> u9 patchset from FreeBSD/Greg Lewis's port
- Updated classloader patch from Matthew Dempsky (matthew@)
okay landry@
out of date and subject to serious security vulnerabilities, updating
it causes a lot of ports churn for little benefit, and nobody has
offered to maintain it.
OK ajacoutot@, jcs@, jasper@
relevant until we get threaded Perl (noted by Espie).
Python bindings still use 2.5, moving to 2.7 is in post-KDE4 plans.
