Comment (by mojca@…):

 I'm asking the same question again: TeX Live now contains pTeX.

 My suggestion would be to eventually:
 - use pTeX from the upstream TeX Live
 - remove pTeX as a separate port
 - make takanori co-maintainer of TeX Live to make sure that all the needed
 patches for pTeX can be included quickly (Dan probably doesn't use or test
 pTeX)
 - if pTeX has additional patches or files which are not yet part of the
 upstream TeX Live, try to make sure that those patches get included
