 r66423)  The ui_msg uses an isset_variant keyword to display the right
 ui_msg block.

  I'd have to uninstall, clean and run it again to be positive, but I think
 I tried removing macports in its entirety, instlalled, selfupdate, and
 then install smokeping with the +apple_apache variant as the first and
 only 'install' and I still ended up with the module installed under the
 apache2 port. I thought that odd, that it would even install apache when
 I'm telling it I don't need it.

  My stubborn problem with smokeping is the mod_speedycgi.so, as it refuses
 to make properly for my platform. The apple apache2 server pukes due to it
 being the wrong architecture.

  I did do a complete uninstall, clean, install etc., and I ran perl5.8 and
 apache2 with the universal variant specified, then I ran smokeping with
 the apple_apache switch and speedycgi did end up where it was supposed to
 be. However, the mod_speedycgi.so is still not right for my archtitecture.

  I'll do another complete uninstall, clean and install from scratch and
 see where it ends up. Any idea why speedycgi wouldn't be right for my
 platform? I'll run it with -d this time.
