Time to remove GNOME I from ports, it's old and ancient, and not
maintained anymore.

libghttp was the forerunner to libsoup and part of GNOME I, used to
speed up p5-libwww, provided by including www/p5-HTTP-GHTTP, a wrapper
around www/libghttp. This is the only remaining port using this GNOME I
library. The dependency has lingered on but not used.

Once p5-libwww has been updated, the www/p5-HTTP-GHTTP port can be
removed and then followed by www/libghttp.

I been using p5-libwww without libghttp/p5-HTTP-GHTTP for sometime on amd64.

Only asking for Ok / Comments on www/p5-libwww
