Redis is an advanced key-value store. It is similar to memcached
but the dataset is not volatile, and values can be strings, exactly
like in memcached, but also lists, sets, and ordered sets. All this
data types can be manipulated with atomic operations to push/pop
elements, add/remove elements, perform server side union, intersection,
difference between sets, and so forth.
In order to be very fast but at the same time persistent the whole
dataset is taken in memory, and from time to time saved on disc
asynchronously (semi persistent mode) or alternatively every change
is written into an append only file (fully persistent mode).

postgres adapter row fetching code with a C version. The C version is
significantly faster (2-6x) than the pure ruby version that Sequel uses
by default.

Gemcutter was replaced with rubygems.org, so remove the MASTER_SITES
from the Makefiles and let MASTER_SITE_RUBYGEMS in ruby.port.mk
handles things.
OK sthen@ "if the checksums still match"
All ruby .gem files are now hosted on rubygems.org in the same
directory. If the ruby gem CONFIGURE_STYLE is used, make the
default MASTER_SITES that directory.
There are still a few uses of MASTER_SITE_RUBYFORGE in the tree, for
some ports that aren't gems, or where the .gem file isn't hosted on
rubygems.org, or where the hashes don't match. Most of these will be
dealt with in the near future.
OK landry@
In the upgrade from ruby 1.8.6 to 1.8.7, the PLISTs changed
due to differences in how RDoc processes files.
This also has a number of changes to the regress tests to
work with the changes to devel/ruby-rake. It moves most of
the regress tests to use MODRUBY_REGRESS.

@pkgpath markers; from ajacoutot@
- tweak from me: @pkgpath markers for these go in PFRAG.python2.6-*
files rather than straight in PLIST-*, so that they are only added
to 2.6 packages, otherwise pkg_add -u will see that either 2.4 or
2.6 versions are valid updates and will have to ask every time,
