Thanks. gcc410 uses a date, clang-3.5 an svn rev number which like
mercurial increases monotonically and I guess that's a requirement so
actually the git hash won't do. I inspected a number of git-based
portfiles, all seemed to fetch a specific commit or tag so I guess a
4.00-HEAD portfile that builds whatever is the upstream head at the time a
user installs the port, is not a good idea.
I just rebuild from HEAD, I am updating my proposed portfile to that
known-good commit hash.
