I'll revert & apply, it will make a cleaner merge to 1.x.x for future.
@gmile I'll tweak this line in `configure.ac` if that's ok:
```
+erlang_version_error="The installed Erlang version must be >= R14B
(erts-5.8.1) and =< 19 (erts-8.0)"
```
as that's actually what the code checks for. I grabbed this diff from the
last time I did this for the FreeBSD port and it doesn't have the
`configure.ac` check in it as it pulls from the tarball. Shame on me...
