I'm not sure how to cope with portgroups (they have to be builtin into  
macports from what I've read).

I wrote a small script to parse web page and generate Portfiles with  
dependencies.
I have still to try them all though, the few I checked supported  
DESTDIR so they should be fine.

I octave-forge packages are going with portgroups I won't commit them,  
basically having a common set of properties is what I made, using a  
prototype Portfile and changing only per-package specific data.
