Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 I like the subport idea, if apple-gcc42 now needs the bootstrap stuff on
 Leopard as well. I thought it only applied to Tiger, based on stuff like:

 {{{
 $ port variants apple-gcc42
 apple-gcc42 has the variants:
    bootstrap: Variant to break a dependency cycle on Tiger by first
 building an
               apple-gcc42 using host ld and cctools
    gpl3: Merge in changes from gcc-4.2.4
    universal: Build for multiple architectures
 }}}
