+ AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org
+
+ The WITHOUT_DEBUG flag has been retired. It's only purpose was
+ to override a global WITH_DEBUG, if that was defined, but many
+ ports were ignoring such flag even if honouring WITH_DEBUG.
+
+ The same effect can be obtained using ".undef WITH_DEBUG" without
+ any special support in port Makefiles.
