Comment(by jmr@…):

 I think that since r37433 we should actually be able to do this:
 {{{
 --- src/macports1.0/macports.tcl        (revision 45299)
 +++ src/macports1.0/macports.tcl        (working copy)
 @@ -2017,6 +2017,7 @@
                  set depflag 1
                  # mark this depspec as satisfied in the cache
                  set depscache($dspec) 1
 +                return
              }

          } else {

 }}}
 and then remove all checks/hacks later on that handle the possibility of
 the port not being installed.
