Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->blackend I'll take this :) I've created new patches with the changes recently made by blackend
to the porters-handbook removed. Also this one fixes some stupidities I've made.
The whole thing is separated into real fixes (first patch) and
whitespace fixes (second patch).
