 Largely, handling of post-activate, post-deactivate handling based on what
 type of resources are installed and handling the issue of +quartz variants
 where the ports will accomodate them.

 To do the latter more easily, I have been thinking that cairo and gtk3,
 both of which now support building multiple backends concurrently, should
 perhaps use subports rather than variants to indicate which backends to
 include.  I think this would simplify variant handling.

 Would this work for cairo?  That is, have cairo itself install a small
 common set of backends and have subports for x11 and quartz?
