Comment:

 We don't have a "cluster" specific configuration as such, but there
 certainly are ways in which MacPorts can be built in a more confined
 fashion so that it becomes share'able across a network through a single
 volume. Off the top of my head, you need to pass a custom `--with-
 tclpackage` flag to the configure script so that the `macports1.0` package
 also gets installed into your confined location, presumably within your
 installation `${prefix}`, and not onto the default `/Library/Tcl` path.

 Don't recall at the moment if there are other things that you need to
 relocate off their default paths to fully confine your MacPorts
 installation, so I'll assign this ticket to myself so that I can write
 something up for the guide or Wiki later for public consumption.
