 I don't know if this is normal, but a message before staging would be
 nice. It doesn't seem normal that a process would take 100% CPU for
 several hours without any feedback… with -v it hangs after this :

 ** Building terminfo database, please wait...
 Running tic to install
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_ncurses/work/destroot/opt/local/share/terminfo
 ...

         You may see messages regarding extended capabilities, e.g., AX.
         These are extended terminal capabilities which are compiled
         using
                 tic -x
         If you have ncurses 4.2 applications, you should read the INSTALL
         document, and install the terminfo without the -x option.


 In the end I killed it, noticed that port hadn't upgraded its dependancy
 ncursesw first, upgraded that explicitely, retried, and it was done in
 minutes. Missing dependancy ?
