a symbol matches multiple clauses the last one takes precedence. If the
catch-all is last it captures everything. In the case of Qt5 libraries
this caused all symbols to have a Qt_5 label while some should have
Qt_5_PRIVATE_API. This only affects lld because GNU ld always gives the
catch-all lowest priority.
Older versions of Qt5Webengine exported some memory allocation symbols from
the bundled Chromium. Version 5.9 stopped exporting these [1] but the
symbols were kept as weak wrappers for the standard allocation functions to
maintain binary compatibility. [2][3] The problem is that the call to the
standard function in these weak wrappers is only resolved to the standard
function if there's a call to this standard function in other parts of
Qt5Webengine, because only then is there a non-weak symbol that takes
precedence over the weak one. If there's no such non-weak symbol the call
in the weak wrapper resolves to the weak wrapper itself creating an infinite
call loop that overflows the stack and causes a crash. Some of the
allocation functions are variants of C++ new and delete and it probably
depends on the compiler whether these variants are used in other parts of
Qt5Webengine.
Remove the weak wrappers (make them Linux specific). This isn't binary
compatible but we are already breaking that with the changes to the symbol
versions.

Bump all ports that depend on Qt5.
PR: 234070

QT4 support is deprecated and will be removed in March 2019.
fwbuilder upline is no longer supported.
Solution:
Use the fwbuilder fork on github. This:
- updates fwbuilder from 5.1.0 to 5.3.7.
- uses QT5.
- is supported.
While here, chase some KDE4 ports and functionality, these are scheduled for
removal on 2018-12-31. Change the default option/flavor to QT5 where applicable
or use alternative toolkits like GTK.

From now on, ports that depend on Qt4 will have to set
USES= qt:4
USE_QT= foo bar
ports depending on Qt5 will use
USES= qt:5
USE_QT= foo bar

There are two cases:
- The upstream versionning is compatible with our versionning, or using
DISTVERSION's magic leads to a compatible PORTVERSION, use
DISTVERSION. If it is possible to use DISTVERSIONPREFIX and
DISTVERSIONSUFFIX to make it compatible, use them.
- The upstream versionning is not compatible with our versionning, and
DISTVERSION's magic does not lead to a correct PORTVERSION, then set
PORTVERSION to the equivalent of our versionning, and set DISTNAME.
It is possible to use a third variable where you store upstream's
version and use it to compute PORTVERSION and/or DISTNAME, like the
dns/bind9* ports do.

The fwbuilder makefile specifies devel/rcs as a run dependency for
FreeBSD 10 and later, but the specification is ignored on a stock
FreeBSD 10.3 installed from an ISO. At some point rcs was removed
before FreeBSD-10 release, but it seems to have been put back and
controlled with a build knob, so it may or may not be present on
FreeBSD 10 or later.
Change the test from checking OSVERSION to checking for the existence
of /usr/bin/rcs. It's a better chek and it fixes a potential dependency
mismatch issue between the port and the built package.
While here, change RUN_DEPENDS= to RUN_DEPENDS+= to avoid a potential
overwrite of existing values.

For example (${OSVERSION} >= 900000 && ${OSVERSION} < 900021) is always true,
as is (${OSVERSION} > 900002 || ${OSVERSION} < 900000 && ${OSVERSION} > 800107).
Regarding patches, when an EXTRA_PATCHES is no longer needed, I remove it, when
it is always needed, I renamed it, in one case, I merged two patches.
