Thanks, I'll update the Portfile now.

variants?
The default is to build just the command-line utility. The GUI (both
variants) is optional. As for the qt4 variant - why do we have qt4 in the
ports tree if we forbid building packages that support it against qt4?
Because someone may need it, e.g. there is a package depending on qt4 and
we don't want to install qt5 as well if ttfautohintGUI supports qt4 too.
