Comment (by egall@…):

 Replying to [comment:14 jeremyhu@…]:
 > I suggest possibly having the libc-headers port also install relevant
 headers from the corresponding release's xnu, or providing a port that
 installs the userland headers from xnu, but to be honest, all this seems a
 bit scary to me ... why not just rely on the host's Libc headers?  Why do
 you feel the need to have a redundant (and less well tested) copy in
 ${prefix}?
