"pkg_info" uses the content of the "COMMENT" variable in a ports Makefile to display a one-line summary of the port.  But it will only
display 60 characters (longer COMMENTs are just cut off).

ae37964c21 Correct some parts based on feedback and suggestions by netchild:
- add more explanations about why it is a good idea to remove old libs
- move the "make delete-old" step after the second mergemaster, because
that is safer [1]
- remove the extra "make check-old-libs" because it is done together with
"make check-old"
- BATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES is a make variable and not an environment variable
- warn more vividly that the user has to recompile ports and other programs
before running "make delete-old-libs" and explain how to do this
- mention that portupgrade can also be used to recompile ports

[1] this brings the handbook in sync with the description in
/usr/src/UPDATING changed in r216591.
