Note that I would not recommend interrupting MacPorts with ctrl+c in any phase other than the build phase; doing so might lead to errors when you resume, and if so you would have to clean the port and start the build over.

I wouldn't trust random build systems to get that right. Suspending with
ctrl-z is generally a lot safer.
