Comment(by njbutko@…):

 > I personally favor solution 1 :). If that is OK for everyone, i will
 change the port to this setting...

 Uwe, solution 1 is acceptable for me, but I would propose a 4th option.
 Just have a "libusbdevel" variant for libdc1394. This will let users
 decide between stable and unstable, and in the future, when the fixes get
 propagated to the main branch, we won't really have to fix anything.

 So to be clear, what I am proposing is that I would install lib1394 in the
 following way:

 {{{
 sudo port install lib1394 +libusbdevel
 }}}

 and someone not using kinect could install lib1394 as before.

 I'll attach a new patch for this solution.
