Comment (by ryandesign):

 Now that the mpbb scripts have been changed to deactivate ports only
 before installing dependencies, more or less random builds of ports are
 now affected by this problem. For example,
 [https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.14_x86_64-builder/builds/116722
 this build] of recode failed because:

 A
 [https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.14_x86_64-builder/builds/116757
 retry of recode] succeeds presumably since that time quagga wasn't active
 before.

 I can and maybe should just run the MacPorts installer on all the builders
 where that wasn't the way MacPorts was initially installed so that they
 all have the .turd_MacPorts files and hopefully all behave the same way
 with regard to that.
