mosh: maintainer update to v1.1.2; add Leopard support (#33810)

Modified Paths:
--------------
  trunk/dports/net/mosh/Portfile

+platform darwin 9 {
+    depends_build-append  port:poll-emulator
+    configure.args-append poll_CFLAGS="-I${prefix}" poll_LIBS="-L${prefix} 
-lpoll"
+}

I am surprised by these -I and -L arguments. There aren't any headers or 
libraries directly in ${prefix}. Typically we see arguments like 
-I${prefix}/include and -L${prefix}/lib; in fact, MacPorts already sets these 
in ${configure.cppflags} and ${configure.ldflags}, respectively.

Ahh, it is indeed a typo. Your explanation makes perfect sense. Indeed, mosh 
builds fine without the configure.args-append line. (I first tested with a 
hard-coded include and library path, and then was overzealous in replacing them 
with ${prefix})

Feel free to remove that line, or I could create a ticket with a patch if you 
prefer.

If you don't think the -lpoll part of that line was needed, I'm happy to remove 
the line. I'll give it a quick test without that line on a Leopard machine.

There's an autoconf test that picks up the -lpoll. It just needed to be there because poll_LIBS was overridden to have the library path.

Please note that mosh will still build without linking the -lpoll from the poll-emulator port; it will fail at runtime.

If you're running a local sshd, you can test with "mosh localhost". (If your locale is not UTF-8, as it seems to not be on my test Leopard machine, you might want 'env LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 mosh --server="env LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 mosh-server" localhost'). You should get a shell. C-^ . to exit. If mosh exits immediately, you're instead linking against the system's libpoll.

I did test it on my Leopard machine, and it appeared to build correctly without that line.
