Comment (by Schamschula):
I'm working on doing just that as a part of addressing #73603
So far I have moved {{{giflib}}} to {{{giflib4}}}, {{{giflib5}}} and
(temporarily) {{{giflib6}}} all to {{{${prefix}/libexec}}}. {{{giflib6}}}
will become {{{giflib}}} after testing.
The current step is to see which ports are compatible with each version.
That entails modifying the Portfiles to point at the correct include and
lib directories and then test building against the current version,
followed by the newer versions.
