+Most ports install just fine unless they try to add themselves to the LaunchD (e.g. most services, but you'd need root for most of them anyhow).  If you do run into a required port that tries to add itself as a startup item, you can locate the portfile (e.g.,  {{{$HOME/macports/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/net/openssh/Portfile}}}) and changing {{{startupitem.create  yes}}} to {{{startupitem.create  no}}}
