 When upgrading with `port -p upgrade outdated`, some lines are missed when
 errors occur. For example in the following partial message:

 {{{

 Error: Please use the same variants again, perform 'port clean gcc47' or

 --->  Computing dependencies for glfw
 }}}

 Between exact-image and glfw, macports tries to build gcc47, but fails,
 and the line
 {{{
 Error: Requested variants "" do not match original selection "+universal".
 }}}
 refers to gcc47, but no info about what is happening is shown before the
 error. At first glance, it looks as if the error belongs to exact-image.

 Just a minor annoyance, but something might be lurking there...
