MacPorts does not make any difference between LaunchDaemons and
LaunchAgents. The default for startupitem.location is LaunchDaemons and
I am not aware of any port changing this setting. There are dbus and
xinit installing LaunchAgents, but those use custom methods/messages.

It always prints 'sudo' in this message. I am not even sure if the
command 'port load' works without root privileges...
