Comment (by rseichter):

 According to the Git commit history, {{{conflicts_build ${name}}}} was
 added by Ryan Schmidt for notmuch 0.14 in 2012, and Sean Farley changed it
 to {{{conflicts_build ${name} xcbuild}}} for notmuch 0.24 in 2017. I can
 only assume what their respective reasons were; the notmuch versions are
 definitely very outdated. I made my first change to the Portfile in 2019
 and have left many things as they were, simply because I did not want to
 meddle with what I did not understand well enough. If you are certain that
 getting rid of the {{{conflicts_build}}} references does not break the
 build, by all means remove any cruft you find.
