Comment:

 We don't currently build xindy because it has some heavy dependencies
 (clisp). We should either make it an optional variant on texlive-bin, or
 put it in a separate port. In either case, texlive-bin-extra shouldn't
 install the support files without the executable.

 I'll see about doing this as part of the TL 2010 update (which should be
 happening soon).
