Comment (by ken.cunningham.webuse@…):

 >Best world, IMO, would be for them to form an ad hoc interest group
 within MacPorts so they could cooperatively work on these issues
 themselves.

 That might be a good idea. Even for example a separate trac stream for
 <10.8 issues would keep the main stream uncluttered, give a voice to those
 trying to keep these machines going, but keep the signal-to-noise ratio up
 for the main cadre of users. People who wanted to help out with older
 systems could.

 I have been working on port repository overlays for my own use that
 provide workable shadows for no-longer-working ports on Tiger / Leopard /
 Snowleopard. For example, <https://github.com/ken-cunningham-
 webuse/TigerPorts>. Other Tiger users would likely find this helpful.
 Welcome any contribution or input.
