Description alex.neyman 2003-05-25 17:00:27 UTC 
1. The "Detailed information" subsection of the "Distribution files"
chapter gives an advanced, yet incorrect example. I inserted that
snippet in a sample port's Makefile, and the results of "fetch-list"
target are different from those of the handbook.

Moreover, this snippet produces warnings like
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 2019: warning: duplicate script for target "master-sites-DEFAULT" ignored
however, this is out of scope for docs-PR.

2. In the "Do's and Dont's" chapter, while the title says "Respect CC
and CXX", the last paragraph refers to CFLAGS instead of CXX.
