Comment (by t21@…):

 Indeed it has. But with Mavericks/Xcode5, the shims that are installed by
 default mean that there's very rarely the need to install anything else.

 The only reason this port didn't build is because the source hard-coded
 the path /System/Library/Frameworks/Kernel.framework/Headers into the
 Makefiles. As John pointed out, those files exist even without installing
 the cmdline tools -- under the relevant SDK directory.

 I think this is a wider issue for MacPorts architecture: how many ports
 now fail if you don't install the cmdline tools? Of the 172 I installed on
 Mavericks, tuntaposx is the only one.

 I suggest it's worth considering whether dropping the requirement for
 xcode-select --install is possible at this stage.
