 It seems not just an upgrade.
 There are some questions.
 
 1. All CONFIGURE_* are removed.
    Are those option useless in 9.05?
 
 2. USE_FEATURES+=snprintf also missing.
    Is it changed not to use snprintf?
 
 3. post-install target(installation of documentation, termcap and terminfo) is 
memoved.
    Why?
 
 4. perl option is still alive in options.mk, but in Makefile, fixed to use 
perl and
    PLIST is uncondifionally.
    9.05 can't build without perl, or useless, or just forgotten?
 
 5. wip/libev/buildlink3.mk is commented out.
    9.05 should be used with libev package?
 
 6. patch-ab is missing (fixes CVE-2008-1142).
    9.05 is not contains it (Just mentioned in man, default display is :0).
    Really no need the patch?
