 Is it possible to tag a port in a way that makes "port upgrade outdated"
 not upgrade the port in question?  This is possible with other package
 managing tools, such as apt.

 I ask because Subversion was recently updated to version 1.6.  This makes
 Subversion integration in Eclipse (and possibly other IDE's) fail, since
 it doesn't recognize Subversion 1.6's file format.  I had to downgrade to
 1.5 to make everything work again.

 It would have been great if I could just tag my current Subversion install
 (1.5.5_0) as being sticky.
