 > This is not true; the test phase is //not// run during a port
 installation, even if the Portfile sets `test.run yes`. Users would
 already have to explicitly run the tests with `port test R`, so they
 should not have to select a variant on top of that.

 I've always found this counterintuitive. There should be some sort of
 option to automatically run the test phase during a normal port
 installation...
