We ensure that 'ports.tgz' tarball should have ports/distfiles directory.
At first, ${CHROOTDIR}/usr/ports is empty (rm -rf ports), then extract
ports files from CVS repository. Then if RELEASEDISTFILES is defined,
${CHROOTDIR}/usr/ports/distfiles directory is created by cp(1). However,
if you don't specify RELEASEDISTFILES, there is no chance to create
${CHROOTDIR}/usr/ports/distfiles directory.

DOCDISTFILES is introduced by rev. 1.541, to point the directory that
contains the distfiles for ports/textproc/docproj. It's good, but
we also build ports/sysutils/mkisofs during the release (if MAKE_ISOS
is defined). It is natural that cdrtools tarball is prefetched, then
copy it under ${CHROOTDIR}/usr/ports/distfiles.
As a result, DOCDISTFILES variable is somewhat abused for non-doc
tarballs; *DOC*DISTFILES is no longger appropriate name for that.

However, removing files/directories is *not* mandatory. The only
requirement is "ports.tgz doesn't include distfiles/* but distfiles

the need to also create the entire ports tree during a `make release'.
The main motivation behind this is that handling the ports tree still
takes a huge amount of time due to the large number of directories
involved, even on modern disks.
The solution is to establish a list of dependent ports that are
minimally required. This list needs to be manually maintained in case
the doc ports toolchain changes, and has thus been broken out into a
separate file Makefile.inc.docports. (release/Makefile has gotten
overly lengthy already anyway.)

- Undo the libmd.so hack, use -D to hide the md5c.c internals.
- Remove the symlink hacks in release/Makefile
- the algorthm is set by set_crypt_format() as before. If this is
not called, it tries to heuristically figure out the hash format, and
if all else fails, it uses the optional auth.conf entry to chose the
overall default hash.
- Since source has non-hidden crypto in it there may be some issues with
having the source it in some countries, so preserve the "secure/*"
division. You can still build a des-free libcrypt library if you want
to badly enough. This should not be a problem in the US or exporting
from the US as freebsd.org had notified BXA some time ago. That makes
this stuff re-exportable by anyone.
- For consistancy, the default in absence of any other clues is md5. This
is to try and minimize POLA across buildworld where folk may suddenly
be activating des-crypt()-hash support. Since the des hash may not
always be present, it seemed sensible to make the stronger md5 algorithm
the default.
All things being equal, no functionality is lost.

distfiles to build the docproj port during release. Prior to this, the
distfiles were copied froom ${DISTFILES}. However, if like me, you needed
to store the distfiles in some directory other than /usr/ports/distfiles,
for example /usr/docdistfiles, then when you overrode ${DISTFILES} it broke
the release build when it tried to build docproj port in the chroot'd
release area. To preserve backwards compatibility, DOCDISTFILES defaults
to the value of DISTFILES.

release (i.e., we are not using a tag of the form RELENG_ver_RELEASE

This should allow the ports and doc freezes during the release cycles
to be somewhat shorter, as commits to those (non-branched) trees can
