DEPRICATED ports should still be allowed to be installed. #32

This allows things like apache22/subversion and other things that have dependencies on recently deprecated bdb versions to install.

I don't think this is acceptable. Users should switch to newer bdb versions, not tools be allowed to install deprecated stuff. Also, second commit does not belong this this pull request.

Sorry, I was wrong as I've missed that DEPRECATED is advisory only in ports. Given that, this PR is quite legal and DEPRECATED should probably be handled equally in portmaster.
