Comment (by mascguy):

 Replying to [comment:73 ryandesign]:
 > Since a portfile is a Tcl file it could technically already implement
 anything you want. poppler could override the build phase so that failures
 are ignored, and then implement its own detection of the failure condition
 and respond appropriately.

 Ryan, thanks for the clarification.

 I added a comment to the issue you logged against the 'gobject-
 introspection' project, asking the developers to look at the issue.
 Perhaps if enough of us speak up, they might finally respond...
