Log message:
Update to 4.8.1. Changes since 4.8:

* Fixed the reference count handling of a module in the error paths when
  initialising it.
* Added support for (vaguely) defining private assignment operators to
  suppress the generation of PyQt4 assignment helpers.
* Fixed a regression in the creation of new exceptions.
* Various changes (including bumping the major version number of the C API)
  to accomodate the design of the API selection support. The implementation
  should not need any further data structure changes.
* Fixed a code generation bug when an /ArraySize/ argument was typedef'ed.
* Fixed sipResolveTypedef().

Log message:
Update to 4.8:

SIP v4.8 has been released. The highlights of this release include
support for Python v3, the ability to supply alternate super-types
and meta-types for wrapped objects, and documentation built using
Sphinx.

The major new features are:

  * support for Python v3
  * the %BIGetBufferCode and %BIReleaseBufferCode to
    support the buffer interface of Python v3
  * the %DefaultMetatype directive and the
    /Metatype/ class annotation to allow the
    meta-type of a wrapped type to be changed
  * the %DefaultSupertype directive and the
    /Supertype/ class annotation to allow the
    super-type of a wrapped type to be changed
  * the sip.simplewrapper type to be used as a
    super-type for wrapped types that don't take
    part in parent/child relationships
  * the %InitialisationCode directive
  * the /KeepReference/ argument annotation
  * the /Encoding/ argument, function, typedef and
    variable annotation
  * super() now works as expected with wrapped types
  * support for __floordiv__, __ifloordiv__,
    __truediv__, __itruediv__ and __index__
  * __bool__ is a synonym for __nonzero__
  * Sphinx is now used for the documentation
  * many additions and deprecations in the API to
    eliminate the differences between classes and
    mapped types. (See the documentation for the
    details.)

Log message:
Simply and speed up buildlink3.mk files and processing.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.

Log message:
Include pyversion.mk include the protected part of the buildlink3.mk
files, not over and over again.

Log message:
Update to 4.7.9:

SIP v4.7.9 has been released.

This is a bug fix release needed to build PyKDE v3.16.2.

SIP v4.7.8 has been released.

* Added the /Deprecated/ class and function annotation (based on
a patch from Lorenzo Berni).
* Templates now support instance variables and enums.
* A Python int object can now be used whenever an enum is expected
without needing to explicitly cast it using the enum's constructor.
The /Constrained/ argument annotation can be used to suppress this
behaviour.
* typedef type names are now used in string representations of
types (e.g. in the names of mapped types) to reflect what the
programmer sees rather than what the compiler sees. The /NoTypeName/
typedef annotation can be used to suppress this behaviour.

Log message:
Make it build on DragonFly.
