 Right, but the message we print is "Portfile changed since last build;
 discarding previous state." That is the condition we want to capture --
 that the portfile has changed -- and I think using a checksum is the
 simplest way to check for that. We don't need to care whether the
 portfile's mtime or version or revision or anything else specifically in
 it has changed; it doesn't matter.
