Comment (by eridius at macports.org):

 This patch is intended to facilitate the !MacPorts Framework sending
 notifications, such as in
 [source:branches/gsoc08-framework/MacPorts_Framework/init.tcl#38132#L76
 init.tcl]. However, this is the wrong approach. It is a bad idea to send
 all the console messages as distributed notifications, especially since
 the clients really only care about things like invoking targets. As such,
 I am recommending not applying this patch unless a more benign use is
 found. The !MacPorts Framework really ought to add status tracing to
 MacPorts itself and simply have it be a noop when the framework is not the
 client.
