Having two entries in MOVED for the devel/avr-gcc -> devel/avr-gcc-3
and devel/avr-gcc-devel -> devel/avr-gcc port changes confused the automated tools (like portupgrade). Thus, Erwin suggested to remove the entry for avr-gcc -> avr-gcc-3, and rather leave a note in UPDATING about it instead. Submitted by: Henrik Brix Andersen Approved by: portmgr (erwin)

+
+ The old avr-gcc port has been renamed into avr-gcc-3, and continues
+ support for GCC 3.x (for a while).
+
+ The former avr-gcc-devel port has been moved into avr-gcc, so GCC
+ 4.x is now the default.
+
+ There is an entry in MOVED for the latter change but not for the
+ former one, as the automated tools (e.g. portupgrade) got confused
+ otherwise.
+
+ If you've previously been using avr-gcc-devel, these tools should
+ automatically take notice (based on the entry in MOVED), and change
+ the installed package to avr-gcc.
+
+ If you've previously been using avr-gcc, and want to move on to the
+ new default GCC 4.x, this should be fully automatic, as the port
+ name just stays, and the version increases.
+
+ If you've previously been using avr-gcc, and want to stay at GCC 3.x
+ for some reason, please manually perform a portupgrade to the new
+ name:
+
+ portupgrade -o devel/avr-gcc-3 avr-gcc
