Comment (by mojca):

 I would say that your proposal makes perfect sense. Name for `portindex`
 is a much less tricky issue than the binary packages.

 I would keep the default names at their current values and would change
 the one for `libcxx` (even though: doesn't `libc++` work as folder name?),
 according to your proposal, except that I don't know if it makes any sense
 whatsoever to do `libc++` on PPC.

 It would potentially make sense to support gcc's libstdc++v3 on PPC and
 that one could be called
 ```
 PortIndex_darwin_9_libstdcxx_powerpc
 ```
 where `libstdcxx` would stand for libstdc++v3. I don't know if we have any
 explicit support for that in base though.
