Comment (by jmpp at macports.org):

 For packages created on Panther & Tiger we could mimmic the
 `*.pkg/Contents/Resources/VolumeCheck` script that some Apple provided
 packages have to check system compatibility, but I wouldn't know how to do
 it in Leopard with what seems to be the new flat package format, by which
 pkg's are no longer directories with a bunch of files in them but rather
 just "data". Ideas?
