Comment (by ryandesign@…):
And we want deterministic repeatable builds. Imagine this scenario:
* on 20141015 we update faust2-devel to version 20141015
* on 20141016 we update faustlive-devel to version 20141016 which is
compatible with faust2-devel 20141015
* on 20141017 user X installs faustlive-devel 20141016 and gets a working
port
* on 20141018 we update faust2-devel to version 20141018 which is not
compatible with faust2-devel 20141016 anymore
* on 20141019 user Y installs faustlive-devel 20141016 and gets a non-
working port; user X's installation still works fine
We don't want two different users installing the same version of a package
to have different results, which is why embedding another port's files is
usually undesirable and why I would use a symlink instead.
