all compilers blacklisted or unavailable

[Brandon Allbery]

IIRC there's also an edge case when something tries to check the compiler
in a fetch step or w/e and the information doesn't exist yet, so all
compilers are "blacklisted" because there are no compilers defined yet,
while the code printing that assumes the compiler list is empty because
blacklisting removed all of them? And I think another if something tries to
look up Xcode-specific information but the xcode portgroup hasn't been
initialized?
