2003-03-15- Reference to php4 flavors replaced with exim (php uses subpackages now)Anil Madhavapeddy
- Dont encourage 'env FLAVOR=blah make install', since this breaks with a lot of subpackaged ports; instead replace 'install' with 'package' - Remove some of the freebsd/netbsd references which are obsolete now - /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk doesnt exist, so Xr bsd.port.mk(5) instead ok pvalchev@

* except when it is escaped with a `\' at the end of the line - fix remaining .Nm usage as well - this is from a patch I received from kwesterback@home.com, who has been working on some scripts for fixing formatting errors in mdoc'd man pages Ok, so there could be a cost/benefit debate with this commit, but since I have the patch we might as well commit it...
