Description

Texi2roff is an unmaintained program program to convert Texinfo to troff. Beverly Erlebacher wrote the program and made the last release in the late 1980's. William Bader produced a patch in 1996 adding numerous commands and other functionality. Alain Knaff added a translation table to generate man pages, and uses it to generate the manuals for mtools. Ben Collver integrated William Bader's and Alain Knaff's changes and made minor cleanups.

*: add LDFLAGS overide that was previously in mk

This is a workaround and should be fixed properly per-package - they should use the pkgsrc LDFLAGS, but this restores what happened before the mk/ cleanup. Fixes relro build for packages that do not honor LDFLAGS.
