Comment (by RJVB):

 Replying to [comment:5 raimue]:

 > I would have gone with three ports: zlib, zlib-ng, and zlib-cloudflare,
 all fulfilling the `path:lib/libz.dylib:zlib` depspec.

 They would, but it takes only 1 port that doesn't play nice to mess things
 up.

 {{{
 > port dependents zlib | wc -l
      165
 }}}

 (and that's just the number of installed ports.)
 > Then you would also not have any problem with different version numbers.

 There were concerns about licensing when I brought up the +cloudflare
 variant before. I've left it in because ATM it still gives a tiny bit
 better performance than zlib-ng, but I wouldn't insist on maintaining the
 variant esp. since CloudFlare don't seem to be keeping their code up-to-
 date.

 > Switching between those just requires a simple `port activate`, which is
 even easier than switching variants.

 Huh? Switching between ports takes two commands, deactivate the one,
 activate the other. It's switching variants that takes a simple and unique
 `port activate` call?!

 Ultimately it'll be Ryan's call I presume.
